Question about mini popups when mousing over. (like in Visual Studio)

i dont like the bloated visual studio and love codeblocks. however the one thing i miss, is thelittle info box that tells you when is expected to complete the line of code.

for example.

SetCursorPosition(

this is where a pop-up will tell you that a HANDLE, and then a comma and then a COORD is required to complete the statement.

is this available via plugins for codeblocks at all? or is it already in the program but i just haven;t activated it yet?

as a beginner it would just help is sometime i am trying new functions like these.

either way ill still stick with codeblocks (as i can just use msdn anyway, but still hoping there is a way.)

thanks!!!!

C::B has this feature: Edit -> Show call tip.
But in 10.05 it doesn't work well, in the recent nightlies the situation is a bit better (way better in fact),
but still this feature doesn't work reliably, unfortunately.

no problem, if im having trouble im sure msdn will be enough help.

not enough to give up on this great compact IDE
