[SOLVED]function parameter autocomplete/show types

so far i got C::B to show me the list of types and parameters when i type "functionname("
in the form of a tip like "functionname(struct xyz, int bla, char andsoon,...)" until i enter the first parameter (here the struct xyz) and the following ",". Then the tip disappears.
It would be very helpful to keep the tip until i am finished typing the parameters and entering the ")"

Is there a way to achieve this? autocomplete-options/plugins maybe?

btw. does this feature have a special name? Not sure if its part of autocomplete?

What is your version? This feature has been improved a lot in after the 10.05 release.

Yes, it does, it is called 'call tip', see "Edit -> Show call tip".

it is 10.05
feels broken somehow, because sometimes(rarely) the tip pops up again at later parameters, but i dont see a rule here ...

Just install a nightly build and report if it works better.
