C-c C-f help tooltip: see help in its entirety? #140

Open Timothy-W-Hilton opened 10 years ago

Timothy-W-Hilton commented 10 years ago

I got started using EIN this morning, and I love it -- super cool work! Many thanks. In a notebook buffer, C-c C-f opens a tooltip for me with the documentation for the object. The tooltip cuts off at 12 lines, and any subsequent keystroke I've tried causes the tooltip to disappear. Is there a way to access the rest of the text?

The C-u prefix, which the documentation states should open the help in the pager buffer rather than in a tooltip, causes no discernible change in behavior for me (that is, the tooltip still opens, then disappears).

You are super lucky to make it work since EIN does not work current version of IPython :)

I know C-u C-c C-f works with pre-1.0 IPython but I guess something went wrong. I have to fix it among with other many things but it will take some time. Sorry for inconvenience. You will see some activity in the issue tracker once I solve it. So stay tuned.
