Html is off. [quote][i]Originally posted by Mordachai[/i] [br]Currently - the context sensitive aspect of VS or VA (not sure who's providing this service) when I go to add an override function to a subclass initially displays the default arguments for the superclass's declaration. e.g. I start typing `void OnContextMen` and by this time I see a "tooltip" showing "afx_msg void OnContextMenu(..." showing the correct args for that message handler (inherited from the superclass). However, it disappears in another heart-beat, and I see no way to recover it. :'( I want a way to say "Insert Override" and have it offer all methods that are inherited - whether virtual or not - so I can choose one and have it supply the correct return type and args (and name). And if it is a virtual, then of course it needs to add the 'override' keyword (I prefer NOT to see virtual keyword, since it's more than redundant: it's misleading at that point in modern C++). So: I start typing OnContex and I either get a persistent and easy-to-use way to expand that to afx_msg void OnContextMenu... blah blah, OR, I simply right click inside the class declaration and choose "insert inherited method" [or whatever you end up calling it] and choose from a fly-out of all possible inherited members. HUGE time saver over having to now lookup the inheritance tree and find a declaration for that and copy/paste and fix the override and etc. :D [/quote]   Check to include your profile signature.
