Hide progress.lang properties / methods from code completion

Posted by jmls on 11-Apr-2013 15:04

Is there any way to mark a progress.lang property or method as invisible to code completion popups ?

I have a need to only show certain methods of a class in the PDS when a user presses ctrl-space

It's not a functionality thing, just want to remove cruft from the method that popup for a developer to make it prettier and easier to select the right options    

:ToString()

:getClass()

:Next-Sibling

etc

The only thing I can suggest is in Window > Preferences > Progress OpenEdge > Editor > Assistance. There's an 'Exclude proposals' groupbox which lets you remove some stuff from the CTRL-SPACE options. But it's a pretty broad brush, so YMMV.

You could paint the golden gate bridge with that brush in a day or so

thanks anyway. I've done it a different way.
