hello,
what do i need (to enable) to have the same amount information in CB as i get in VisualCode about a function?

Write a plugin based on the language server protocol which talks to something like clangd...

This is in case you have the documentation popups enable in codecompletion settings...

Do you have the documentation popups enabled, as suggested?

Edit: It will not do all of what you want!

yes, I believe so.
General Settings -> Editor Settings -> documentation popup - tooltips = enable

Is there anything else that I need to change/check, please?

That sounds correct to me; but, I do not use Code Completion.

@AZ: When do you want to show this information? When you select a function (code-completion) or when inspecting parameters (call tip)? The documentation popup is visible at the moment only during function selection, but not during parameter inspection. I guess we need to improve this. :)

If you have the time it will be good if you could log this in the issue tracker on sf.net. Thank you.
