Hover Over Not working

@6:02 The course refers to hovering over the delegate to see the signature requirements.

My VS Code does not have this hover over function (or something is not loading correctly). So far I have made do but it seems like a hugely advantageous feature. How do I set it up?

Hi and Welcome to the community.

The instructor uses Visual Studio which offers better facilities for this sort of thing over VS Code. While code is fine as an editor, for C++ it does lack somewhat. I personally use Rider which is a paid for tool and superior to both.

The only thing I am aware of is the option to regenerate project files which is in one of the menus inside the Unreal Editor.

Give that a try. You may also need additional plugins for C++ but again I can’t tell you what they are as I’ve never gotten code working to my liking with C++.

I think I found what you were referring to - in the Unreal Editor I found Tools >> Refresh Visual Studio Code Project.

It has fixed what i was struggling with thank you.

For those who read this far. Seems you’ll be refreshing every time you delete the Binaries, Intermediate and Saved Folders.

Yes, when you build it adds files that are used to access symbols. Removing the folders will reset these.

There’s a reason why people use editors other than VS code and this may be one of them.
