1. This kind of bug repeated many times through VA's history...
Pay attention to the snapshot (I'll mail it to the support mail); location of combo and popped up members list... If vertical scrollbar is present (many items), it covers combo at my place, making it unusable (I tend to release LMB after clicking onto combo and, if popup covers it, automatically item below pointer will be selected (which would, without covering, be ok behaviour)).
I suspect that you take height from the wrong window. In the layout visible on the snapshot, popup height doesn't seem to depend on output/find dock - popup will have the same height if I resize the dock.
2. In popup that appears after pressing on Go button... Things defined within vastdafx.h shouldn't really appear there.
3. One feature I miss - I remember there was some discussion in the past, but it's still missing. Go button is very nice and useful, but I miss some form of Back button... :| RMB on Go would be an example of a nice method of invocation.

1. We slid the right edge of your PNG to the left, ie cut out a vertical strip, so browsers needn't be so wide to view the entire image.

point 2, which file exactly are you talking about? i have a file:
C:\\Program Files\\Visual Assist X\\Misc\\StdafxVa.h
but this only contains #include lines, so there is nothing there that i would expect VA to offer you the chance to go to.
point 3, have you tried CTRL-TAB, ALT-LEFT_ARROW or CTRL_MINUS? CTRL-TAB only makes sense if you have changed files when pressing alt_g, but the other two work very well for me after pressing alt_g. |

1. We can't find the right setup to reproduce your problem. It's true VA X tries generally to create a very tall Alt+M list but there is probably something in your setup that confuses us. See if you can find what it is.
We try Alt+M and get a list below the Context field that runs into the Output/Find window.

3. VA introduced navigation ala a browser before MS introduced it in VS.NET. You can use the VS.NET versions or those in VA X. If you want the VA X style, you might unassign Alt+Right from Edit.CompleteWord. See the bottom of this page:

1. I think I've managed to find out the cause of the problem - WndTabs. If it has only one row of tabs, popup menu height seems to be calculated ok (although, it might be only accidentally ok); if it has more than one row, height is always wrong.
2. Sorry; I was clearly typing filename from my memory. :| I thought of VA/misc/stdafx.h . Defines found within appear in popup, which is of no value to a user; only confusing.
3. You are correct. Then, take it as a suggestion, not bug. For example, I almost never use VA toolbar, but I often click on 'Go' button. Pure logic says that somewhere aroung 'Go' should be 'Back' as well. :) RMB click on 'Go' would be ideal...

point 1 - running win2k, VC6 and WndTabs 3.20 i have opened enough files to have three rows of tabs, and i still cannot re-produce this problem with the alt-m list. at this point the only obvious difference is that you have a scroll bar on this list and a winXP themed IDE.
i am curious about the scroll bar since this was a feature request a couple of days ago. unless you can point to some other difference, i am going to guess that the OS is somehow relevant to this. i will ask support if they have a winXP test system to try this on.
point 2 - reproduced
case=865
point 3 - you can always put VA's "Navigate Back" toolbar button onto a toolbar and position it over the Go button  |
