VC++ had quite good autocomplete for methods, including pressing up/down to toggle through multiple overloads.

But the VA version, though nicer, isn't showing me there are multiple overloads and I don't know how to pick the one I want.

e.g I type:
setParameter(

Visual Assist also supports this function, but unfortunately there is a know issue with this feature: methods/functions declared in the source file does not show up, but it will work when the methods/functions are declared in the header file:

case=495

By declared, do you mean putting the actual method body in the .h (like a Java class)? I've got method signature in .h and method body in the .cpp like normal C++... if that's the case it doesn't work this seems a fairly serious issue considering how long VA has been around :) Don't suppose you can selectively control which VA features are enabled?

No, the known bug I had mentioned is when both the declaration and the body is in the cpp file for C++ methods or there is no declaration of a C function. It seems you have a different problem. Can you please post here or send us a code snippet, where it happens? In case you don't want to post it here, you can send it us via this form:
