I experimented a bit and I think you are exactly right. If I comment out  
the commands that contain upper-case letters, the calltip mechanism works.  
If I resort just those commands, viz, move them to the bottom of the file,  
autocompletion does not work for the upper-case commands but it does work  
for all others.

Workaround:

in context.xml go to

<Environment ignoreCase="no" startFunc="[" stopFunc="]" /><br/>

change ignoreCase

ignoreCase="yes"

resort according to ignorecase

I did this for one command and it works, let me try some more.

Hi,

Change the name of the attached to end in .zip . I can confirm that the  
context calltips work for this version of context.xml in Npp 5.5.1.

OTOH, the ignoreCase=no used to work, and that is something that the Npp  
developers will hopefully take care of.

Richard, if you make additional calltips to context.xml, can you post your  
updates to the wiki? Maybe we can start a project to eventually add  
calltips to all commands. I have a few other ideas as well to make these  
calltips more useful, and to serve a certain book project ;-)

Best wishes
Idris

I did some experimenting with calltips about a year ago... it took me a  
while to figure it out though...

In context.xml I implemented only one:

		<KeyWord name="startitemize" func="yes">
			<Overload retVal="" >
				<Param name="[.1.] n a A KA r R KR m g G -number- each" />
			</Overload>		
			<Overload retVal="" >
				<Param name="[..,.2.,..] standard -n-*broad -n-*serried packed  
unpacked stopper joinedup atmargin inmargin autointro loose section  
intext"/>
			</Overload>		
			<Overload retVal="" >
				<Param name="margin = no standard -dimension-" />
			</Overload>			
		</KeyWord>


It used to work, in my present Npp 5.5.1 it seems broken; even cpp  
calltips don't work -- although normal autocompletion works fine. Does  
this one calltip work for you? What version of Npp are you running?

In any case, it will be a major task to fill out all calltips for  
context.xml, unless there is a minimally structured source file for all  
context command options that can be sorted by text-processing [beyond my  
skill set].

Best wishes
Idris
