Hello everyone !

My issue is not critical, however, it's pretty annoying :
The window showing all the variables and functions of an object when you start to write it doesn't show the comments.
I don't know if it's clear so I will add an image for you :










I'm pretty sure a comment needs to be displays in the right window under "public Color". It's the same for my own comments and comments from others libraries that worked well before.
I think I mess something but I don't know what at all :/ And searching for that problem is an horror since I just find things such as "how to make a comment" or generics questions about the windows of codeblocks.

Thank you for reading this and I hope someone knows the solution here !

And by the way, sorry for my english, it's not my native language.

We call this window "call tip window".
Can you show a minimal example? I mean a code snippet which does not include any other header files, so that I can try to reproduce this bug. Thanks.
If some piece of memory should be reused, turn them to variables (or const variables).
If some piece of operations should be reused, turn them to functions.
If they happened together, then turn them to classes.

Thank you for the information about this!
For the test, I was writing a simple example and... it seems to work again now, for everything. (libraries, personnal stuff, etc...)

The strange thing is that it doesn't work directly after a specific modification. (such as a new project, a new function or after changing a parameter in the options). And this problem began several days ago.
The last specific thing I did was in settings->editor->DoxyBlocks->Comment style, I was just changing that for the test. However, I don't think that's why the problem was solved.

Sooo... This is 'solved' however I can't give advices for those who have the same issue as me. :/
So, thank you for taking the time to help me.

And the 'now useless' code, just in case of :

Code
/** FunctionOne does things*/
void functionOne();

/////////////////////////////////////////////////
/// \brief This is function Two
/// \param bool b
/////////////////////////////////////////////////
void functionTwo(bool b);

int main()
{
    functionOne();
    functionTwo(true);
   
    return 0;
}
void functionOne() {}
void functionTwo(bool b) {}
