Unable to get Unity Documentation to Appear in Visual Studio

[anubhab123]

I am unable to get the Unity Documentation to appear in Visual Studio. I took the Unity.xml file included in the Hydrogen Framework/Extras/Visual Studio folder and moved it to Program Files/Unity/Editor/Data/Managed and restarted both Unity and Visual Studio but it does not show the documentation as I am typing like it does in the preview screenshots on the hydrogen site.

I'm going to take a stab at this tonight (haven't forgotten ya! -- though I
have a feeling I should do an update pass on the documentation as well

So I believe I have identified the issue, and its a small change to how IntelliSense works. Each "library" needs to be a seperate file, named identical (except the extension) to the library it represents.

So ...

UnityEngine.xml
and
UnityEditor.xml

Need to be made from the Unity.xml provided, I'm currently looking at updating everything as a whole... just because ... but that should resolve this.

Thanks a lot!

I will contact you soon after trying the fix.

So making them separate files does in fact work :) This change will come in a release with Unity 5 more then likely. Unfortunately, I've got a back log of changes for it.

Does Unity.xml need to be there also or only UnityEditor.xml and
UnityEngine.xml?

One for each library, so UnityEngine.xml and UnityEditor.xml ... Just make
sure to edit the files to contain only the relevant info.

I will push an update when Unity 5 is available to the public with updated
files and instructions.

Everything for the UnityEngine needs to be in there, and then everything for the UnityEditor needs to be in its respective file.

I dont think I understand what your asking :(

[anubhab123]

Hey so looking in the included Unity.xml file I see xml tags with methods
of various namespaces(UnityEngine and UnityEditor). e.g.

or

    <member name="M:UnityEngine.ADBannerView.Finalize">
        <summary>To be added.</summary>
        <remarks>To be added.</remarks>
    </member>

I took all the M:UnityEngine tags and added them to UnityEngine.xml and all
the M:UnityEditor tags and put them in UnityEditor.xml and put them in
the C:\Program Files (x86)\Unity\Editor\Data\Managed. I also restarted
Visual Studio and rebuilt and also deleted references to UnityEngine and
UnityEditor and added the dlls in C:\Program Files
(x86)\Unity\Editor\Data\Managed. Originally they were in some Assemblies
folder.

I don't know if maybe I have a path misset or if instead I should put the
.xml files in the assemblies folder but I can't seem to get it to work.

Thank you very much for your help and let me know if you're still confused.
