Package:           kdevelop
Version:           2.0 (using KDE 3.0.2 )
Severity:          wishlist
Installed from:    Debian testing/unstable Packages
Compiler:          Not Specified
OS:                Linux
OS/Compiler notes: Not Specified

Intellisense is nice and all but there are times in which I'm looking at a variable and I just want to know what it is especially with global constants.

I think it would be nice if when the mouse  or cursor is over a variable that a small balloon would pop-up next to it and tell you what it is.  If its type is a typedef then you could click on some arrows in ballon and look at all the typedefs.  If it is a preprocessor defined constant then it would show what it's defined as.
