Re: Live update and content assist

See, I made the reverse assumption. Where else does content assist get its information than from the outline? In previous versions of WDSC/RDi/RDp content assist was always refreshed when the outline was refreshed. Now with the live outline refresh, the content assist is not refreshed, so for the first time the two are out of synch.

I can't believe you don't use content assist. For me, content assist has become a must-have feature of programming. For me it's a quick way to get the definition of a variable, as well as a great auto-completion tool. Seeing the available subfields for a data structure on the fly is nice as well.

I created an RFE for a live refresh of content assist, but that won't help you if you don't use it.

I'm curious why you're curious about the link when you don't use CA.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] Live update and content assist

Can someone please explain the relationship of live update to content assist (which I don't use). I thought content assist was the "help" that is triggered by Ctl/SpaceBar that explains operations in calcs. If true, I don't understand how that is related to live update. My guess is there is a lot more to content assist than I have discovered.
