https://files.gitter.im/Valloric/ycmd/2ari/vim-overlay.gif Here is an another demo from earlier implementation. You can note that I'm passing argument to the overlayclose(2) at the end. At that time I was considering having multiple popups at the same time and giving them id-s. But I postponed that idea till the single overlay is polished enough and there is actually need for multiple popups. A little bit on docs: Well row/col are self explanatory. [ list_of_items ] strings to be shown in popup. If only one element is specified then vim's existing balloon like popup will show up. If more then one strings are specified popup will show one element at a time, but will have backward/forward buttons allowing to switch between them. And the last argument will indicate whether strings in list should be treated like pango markup (default value 0). When using markup <, > and & characters should be escaped wherever necessary as < > & Examples: call overlayshow(10, 10, ['Some doc information']) call overlayshow(10, 10, ['void foo(int&)', 'void foo(<b>double</b>)'], 1) -- -- You received this message from the "vim_dev" maillist.
