As Vern suggests, to my knowledge this is usually the result of the initial parsing happening when you open the source. Takes a few moments to finish. Severely longer over a VPN connection (at least over my horrid VPN connection - although on that note I now remote into a desktop on the same network as the i).

Hi Greg

Is there a status message in the lower right about resolving external files or the like?

While editing an RPGLE source member, I often hover over a variable if I can't recall the definition (it also lets me know if I've forgotten to define a new variable).

For some reason, this does not work at all when I first open RDi and open a source member. Hovering the mouse cursor over the variable does nothing. However, once I've had it open for a while (usually editing/changing), it seems to work fine.

Anyone else observe this? I'm at version 9.1

Thanks,
Greg
