Kurt,
The Outline view now has the automatic update ability. However, the other
tools in the editor still need to be updated to use the new model that has
been developed.
For now, the Refresh button in the Outline view will update the information
that Content-Assist uses. If you do a verify, it will also be updated.
This is the same as in the previous release.
Also, the Refresh button needs to be used if external information (copy
members, external files) have changed.
Please feel free to open a RFE for a 'live' content assist. We regularly
review the RFEs and they do influence our direction.
Thanks,
Eric

It appears that the automatic refresh of the outline is not always picking
up field definitions and/or is not synching up with content assist.
For example, I'll be creating a procedure, adding in the variables, then
moving onto the freeform C-specs and content assist has no idea about the
D-specs. When I open up the outline, I see that the variables are there,
and they have definitions applied to them. It's not until I click on the
manual outline refresh button that content assist is aware of these new
D-specs.
Another scenario is when I'm copy/pasting a procedure into the source. The
new procedure shows up in the outline, but all the D-spec values have an
Unknown data type.
