MemberList won't hide

Do you have the IntelliPromptMemberList.HideOnParentFormDeactivate property set to true? It should be that by default.

Yes, the problem happens when the SyntaxEditor control is used on a MDI form.

Steps:
1) Create a new project
2) Create two new window forms
3) Make the MainForm a MDI by setting the IsMdiContainer=true and the second form as a child of the MDI
4) Add a SyntaxEdior control to the child form (add the necessary code to display a memberlist)
5) Run the project (make sure the child form is displayed)
6) Display the memberlist and than click outside of the main form (MDI)

Notice: that the memberlist is still displayed

Ahh... that explains it. In that case the Form we are looking at is your MDI child, not the parent. So the deactivate never occurs. We'll mark this down as a bug.

Is it possible to check to see it the SyntaxEditor has focus to determine it is should hide the memberlist?

Hi Devin,

Actually I've got the fix in place for the next maintenance release already.

I am still able to repro the problem in v3.0.0178.

The syntax editor is added to a child form, and that form is added to tab control on the main form (not an MDI form).

The problem here is that FindForm is returning your form that you are using as a control-like child of another form. It should work if you have it on a regular form or MDI child form. We'll have to make another tweak to handle this case as well.
