If the function is selected and highlighted by double clicking and it's not the only one highlighted symbol , then the F12 will not work. Is this expected?

I realized that I had the the same issue. Looking up a symbol does not work if the cursor is after the last character in a typename. Which it is if you doubleclick the typename word.

This makes it very confusing as it can be in the muscle memory to double-click the word and then you think that the index does not work when using F12. But it actually works if right-clicking as you put the cursor where you right-click inside the typename word.

The really strange thing is that you get a tooltip from vscode with "No definition found 'typename'" where the typename is the correct typename. So it feels like the correct typename should've been sent to ccls as well.
