Description CmdrDats CLA 2006-04-07 07:33:36 EDT
I have a slightly non-standard screen configuration, see <a href="http://www.dats.co.za/eclipse/popup/screen_config.png">http://www.dats.co.za/eclipse/popup/screen_config.png</a>. 

As a result, sometimes the context assistant goes below the screen which makes it somewhat hard to use sometimes (see <a href="http://www.dats.co.za/eclipse/popup/result.png">http://www.dats.co.za/eclipse/popup/result.png</a>).

I also have trouble when it places the javadoc too far right and spans across to the next screen, it's hard to see what's going on.

I would suggest having the context assistant (and the attached javadoc) try stay within its current screen, position itself above the cursor if necessary..

Thank you,

This refers to platform text content assist.  Moving to platform text.  I'm sure this is a duplicate, but don't know the bug number off the top of my head.
