Did you forget Sync Edit Params?
Doh! ... I did.
I was doing some research for the next article [as promised] watching the "Video of Delphi Code completion and code browsing features ..." by Steve Trefethen when I ran across a gem that I'd completely forgotten about ... "Sync Edit Params". Being a secret feature [still, I dug down into the D2007 registry settings to have a squint] it's one you don't want to forget to set.
If you don't want to sit through the video [but you should - it's great!] you can also find the required steps in the article Hidden feature, anyone?! on Blog O Sparky.
I knew something was missing :)

Thanks for the link!
ReplyDeleteSteve,
ReplyDeleteYou are most welcome. I actually missed including a link through to your main page using your name - that's fixed. With what I learn/take from your blog posts [excellent stuff] you'll probably see links back quite frequently.
I gave it a try. I would want a custom way to invoke it other than ctrl-space.
ReplyDeleteI found that if I used enter, it could quickly just drop everything in and bypass letting my fill in the fields. It's an interesting feature tho.
Xepol, don't use Ctrl-Space, just start typing the function name, select from the list that pops up or complete typing including the opening brace "(" ... magic. You can use Ctrl-Space and select from the list for the same results though ... just more than you need to do :)
