Too few elements in symbol browser

(1/1)

Hi,

I've got a problem with the symbols browser. I have to work on a project with a very special design, which results in a large (huge  :shock:) number of as well variables and functions (>5000) as of preprocessor defines (same order of magnitude)!! Though the default setting for "number of symbols" in the symbol browser is >16000 I can only see a part of the symbols and defines. Increasing the number of symbols (even to 100.000) seems to be without any effect for my project (though I could not check for each single entry :lol:). How can this behaviour be explained - and is it a bug:?:

Greetings

Jo

By the way: in one of the last nightly releases there seemed to be more elements visible, but far away from all!

mandrav:
First, the max elements count is not for the symbols browser but for the code-completion list.
The symbols browser displays all "local" symbols (explained below) based on its current filter: "all workspace symbols", "active project's symbols" and "current file's symbols".

Local symbols are considered those that have been discovered in any file residing under any open project's base path.
