Autocomplete issue: the first parameter is missing, and the property does not work

Environment data

VS Code version: 1.18.0
Python Extension version: 0.8.0
Python Version: 3.5.3
OS and version: Windows 10

Actual behavior

Two issues:

1. when i mouse-hover a function, i can see the intellisense of this function. The problem is that the first parameter is missing. You can see the behavior from the below picture. The 'Text' parameter is missing from the function signature.

2. When i mouse-hover some function, i cannot see any intellisense information. For example, when i hover 'id', i will see the following information:

however, i defined it like below, i don't know why the documentation for this property does not work.

Thanks for the help,

For the missing initial argument, can you provide some sample code that demonstrates the problem?

As for the property issue, this is probably related to #210 .

[naeco2008]

it looks the first issue is because i didn't set 'self' as the first parameter.
For the second one, i just rewrote them by using @Property. They work now.

But when i test the intellisense, i found sometimes it works well, sometimes it does not work suddenly. Is there someway i can debug the vscode-python to check what is wrong?

Thanks,

It depends on how far you want to go with the debugging. 😄 Actually running the extension under VS Code itself so you can debug it actually isn't difficult (see our CONTRIBUTING.md file or the VS Code docs itself on how to do it).

As always, sample code that triggers the problem is the most helpful.

Anyway, glad you figured things out!
