Changing Highlights in Scintilla Calltips

[Stefano Mtangoo]

I have calltip that shows function signature and wants to change highlight
of argument each time user types a comma.
I can see it implemented in man IDEs and cant get it right. What
function/signal do they real use? I have tried something like below it does
not work at all

CallTipShow(GetCurrentPos(), callTip);
CallTipSetHighlight(GetCurrentPos(), 10);

Any hint is apreciated!
TIA,
Stefano

Hi Neil,
I have calltip that shows function signature and wants to change highlight of argument each time user types a comma.
I can see it implemented in man IDEs and cant get it right.
I have implemented that and to some extent its working.
Now I have a related problem. If I pass any word position after ( 5 for
example in calltip text of "add($a, $b)" as start position then selection
disappears.
If I Take it back let say to 0, it works. Is this by design?
Since SciTE does this, you should examine its source code.
Neil
