When opening the refactor menu on an implicit conversion operator in a class such as:

`operator int() const;`

There is no option to "create implementation" or "add similar member". It doesn't look like visual assist is recognizing the operators as member functions?

Which IDE and version of VA are you using?

When you are testing this, where are you placing the caret? Which symbol are you using as the "function name"? For me, this works as expected when I place the caret into "operator" and trigger the refactoring context menu.

Since operator overloaded functions are a slightly special case, triggering on thee operator keyword is what we have settled on for a reliable approach.

Aha. I've been placing the caret over the `int()` portion like I would do for member function definitions. It works when I highlight operator.

Thanks!

I wondered if this was the case. For "int()" it makes sense, but when you get onto other operators, especially brackets, then where do you place the caret?
