Question

I have writen a method such as:

/// <summary>
/// A method having xml-comments
/// This comment could be very long
/// </summary>
/// <param name="input">Input parameter</param>
/// <returns>Calculated value</returns>
int CommmentedMethod(int input) {
    return Calc(input);
}

But when I use this method, Visual Studio (I’m using VS 2010) just show up “A method having xml-comments This comment could be…” not a full document.

Is there an option to show it?

Thanks 🙂

You can use Ctrl + Shift + Space key combination to view the parameter information.

In the following screenshot you can see the overloads, definition and parameter information being shown after clicing Ctrl + Shift + Space with the caret on Format method.
