Constructor signature not displayed when the constructed object is a method parameter

[spajus]

Type: Bug

Issue Description

Constructor does not show any hints when typing if the object you are trying to construct is used as an inline method parameter.

Steps to Reproduce

Try to type the following code, it will not show hints when you do "list.Add(new Point("

            // Constructor hints appear after typing new Point(
            var point = new Point(1, 2);
            var list = new List<Point>();
            list.Add(point);

            // Constructor hints DO NOT appear after typing new Point(
            list.Add(new Point(1, 2));

Expected Behavior

Constructor hints should be visible when building an object inline as a parameter.

Actual Behavior

Constructor hints do not show up.

This issue is still there in v2.3.27. To clarify, the actual behavior is "Constructor hints do not show up. Hint for enclosing method call is shown instead (hint for List<T>.Add in OP's repro example)."

[SeijiSuenaga]

Still happening in today's v2.5.30 release as well.

Been a while... Still happening in v2.15.30.
