Suggestion - tooltip persistent through autocomplete

This is a relatively small request... I've noticed that when a function calls for a "bool", the tooltip disappears as the autocomplete kicks in. So I see the autocomplete going "true/false", but I don't know what is meant to be true/false. Sure, this is but a minor hindrance, and the tooltip returns after the next comma, but it is a hindrance... can the tooltip just stay on even as autocomplete pops up?

The text editor control that AGS uses doens't seem to be able to display the calltip and the autocomplete at the same time, so I'm not sure which way to go with this. With some functions the autocomplete is more useful, with others (such as bool parameters) it's not so much. Maybe an option in preferences would be the way to go.

Oh well, if it's impossible then you might as well leave it as it is. An option in preferences would be nice - but, realistically speaking, it would always be set to "Autocomplete" rather than "Tooltip". Thanks anyway. :)
