Unfortunately, you cannot do that, neither VS2010, nor Visual Assist have an option like this. However, are you aware of VA View? It is very helpful, since it can show you all methods and member variables in your current class:

VAssistX -> Tools -> VA View

Just make sure you enable "Update with current scope":
Right click over VA View's lower part and select "Update with current scope". So you will see the members when the caret (the blinking line) is in a function or in a class. Give it a try.

My version is VS2010/VA10.7.19.16
I am a novice C / C + + I hope you can see all the entries, not just in the Suggestion listboxes when I type characters. (Because I do not know many (all) of the variable or function) I want to default to see all the content without press ctrl + space

Overall just want to reach C # smart tips

Thank you very much

Which Visual Studio and Visual Assist version are you using?

Anyway, there are 3 types of listboxes:
1. Suggestion listboxes
2. Member listboxes
3. Listboxes that contain all symbols

If you just press ctrl+space, you just get a list of symbols of your project. Suggestion listboxes have been designed to contain symbols that are probably the most useful in the context. In fact, smart suggestions can offer you with very exact suggestions in several circumstances, based on type, like:



Also, if you type more, suggestion listboxes tend to show you more.

Do you think you often cannot find in suggestion listboxes what you want or you just want to experience with this (you want to try this out)?

Sorry for the complex question, hope you understand it. We always look for ways to improve Visual Assist, this is why I try to see what is the problem if any.
