How to Filter IntelliSense?

S

Sin Jeong-hun

IntelliSense is very helpful, but sometimes there are too many items on
the pop-up list.

For example, sometimes I just want to browse methods only. But the list
shows everything including properties, methods, events and so on. Is
there any way to filter them?

Also, somethimes, when I'm using controls that inherits another
control, I only want to see the control's own members. For example,
suppose that there is a table control that inherits UserControl. I only
want to see the table control's own members that I use frequently like
GetRow() or GetColumn() but currently the IntelliSense shows
everything. It is really hard to find what I need in the list. Is this
possible?

Hello Sin Jeong-hun,

There is a 3rd party tool "Virsual Assist" (http://www.wholetomato.com/)
that allows you to filter intellisence items by group
