Call tips for some of functions and constructors don't work #682

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Type the text from the cases below to the editor:

First case:
a = dict(

Second case:
b = dict
b.update(

2. After typing the last character - '(' the call tip will not be displayed

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Call tip with constructor/function arguments displays.

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
2.5.3 on Windows (x86)

Please provide any additional information below.

I know that there may be some issues with improper in-code documentation of the 
functions like dict (code imported from C?). 

Little solution: 
There is a tooltip which shows on prompt while typing 'dict'. Start typing 
dict, and eventually press Ctrl+Space. The completion "menu" will show in which 
you can choose the function/class name you want to type. When 'dict' is chosen 
there is a hint with informations about constructors on the right. It would be 
great if the same hint appears as a constructor call hint when the user type 
"dict(". The same issue and solution for function update.
