Did you know... How to display parameter info for a function? - #062

parameter info displayed for a function

Press Ctrl+Shift+Space to display the parameter info.  The command is Edit.ParameterInfo, in case you need to check the keybindings.

Display parameter info on text editr toolbar

To iterate through the possible parameters, press the down arrow to go to the next and up arrow to go to the previous.  For whatever reason, I always reverse these arrow keys and end up navigating backwards.

I always mix up the meaning of the keys when cykling the definitions. I suspect it's because the arrows next to the "1 of x" makes the brain think you should increase the number with the up arrow.

Doh!  For five years now my routine has been to delete everything after the last dot, and retype it to display the parameter info.

Thanks for the tip!

That's Ctrl+K, P surely! :-,)  Hope I don't confuse everyone.  It matches in my mind:

Ctrl+K, ...

  L -- List members

  P -- Parameters

  I -- quick Info

etc etc...

I've always had to delete one of the commas to pull that menu up.
