Does anyone use Notepad++ with the function "calltips" feature? Checking
the
context.xml definition file, there are calltips defined for
\startitemize, but
they never appear when I'm typing, even though the auto-completion works
fine.
Trying a .cpp file gives calltips okay, so it seems to be something to
do with
the Context implementation.
I did some experimenting with calltips about a year ago... it took me a
while to figure it out though...
In context.xml I implemented only one:
<KeyWord name="startitemize" func="yes">
<Overload retVal="" >
<Param name="[.1.] n a A KA r R KR m g G -number-
each" />
</Overload>
<Overload retVal="" >
<Param name="[..,.2.,..] standard -n-*broad -n-*serried packed
unpacked stopper joinedup atmargin inmargin autointro loose section
intext"/>
</Overload>
<Overload retVal="" >
<Param name="margin = no standard -dimension-"
/>
</Overload>
</KeyWord>
It used to work, in my present Npp 5.5.1 it seems broken; even cpp
calltips don't work -- although normal autocompletion works fine. Does
this one calltip work for you? What version of Npp are you running?
In any case, it will be a major task to fill out all calltips for
context.xml, unless there is a minimally structured source file for all
context command options that can be sorted by text-processing [beyond my
skill set].
Best wishes
Idris
