Hi all,
I've been using CB on windows and really liked it that the program gave variable details when the mouse was on a variable (what type of variable, dimension, description, where it is defined).
Now I've switched to Linux (Ubuntu) with CB version 16.01, this function does not work. Unfortunately I can't find where to switch on this functionality. Can someone help me with this?

I'm running 16.01 in Ubuntu, and the feature was on by default for me. You can double check by going into Settings>Editor>General Settings category>Editor Settings tab>Code completion section and ensure the tooltips drop down list is set to the "enable" option. What I find more often though is that this feature just occasionally breaks. If you've verified the feature is already enabled, use Project>Reparse Current Project. Even after doing this, I sometimes find that the parser still cannot identify variables sometimes and have to relaunch CodeBlocks.
