Hi How can I turn on tooltips for functions ? I mean if I want to call a function I have to insert proper parameters into that function. Normally Visual Studio shows a tooltip which shows hints about that function(parameters,descriptions etc). However somehow this tooltip doesn't show. How can I turn it on ?

Have you tried Ctrl+Shift+Space?

I think it is just Ctrl+Space. Also, Ctrl+. will open the tooltip thing when the cursor is on some text with a little red box (such as when you change a variable name or type a class name outside the current namespaces).

Ctrl+Space opens the IntelliSense dropdown list, but pressing Ctrl+Shift+Space inside the brackets of the method call gets the tooltip.
