Docstring on hover not shown

[ufechner7]

To reproduce:

git clone https://github.com/OpenSourceAWE/KiteUtils.jl
cd KiteUtils.jl
git checkout heading

Open the folder KiteUtils.jl

Open the file examples/calc_rotational_inertia.jl

You can hover over any imported symbol, but none of their docstrings are displayed.

The difference to #46 is that here we import the package under development itself instead of packages that are part of Julia.

Will need to review this with care for 2026.7.2 (takes a bit more time to find the actual cause).

Implemented for 2026.7.1:

I reopened this issue. With 7.1 it shows something, but not the docstring.

Code:

using KiteUtils: load_settings, get_particles, set_data_path, calculate_rotational_inertia

If I hover over "load_settings", I see the definition of the struct it returns, but not the function documentation.

I added a fix in 2026.8.0, please let me know if it still occurs:

[ufechner7]

No change. I mean, you can also test that yourself:

git clone https://github.com/OpenSourceAWE/KiteUtils.jl.git
cd KiteUtils.jl

Open the folder KiteUtils.jl in PyCharm.
Open the file examples/calculate_rotational_inertia.jl
Hover over load_settings in line four, the first line after the license header

I tested 2026.8.1, and the problem still occurs. No change.

[madppiper]

That is strange because it worked perfectly fine on my end. I’ll take another look

[ufechner7]

Did you test with or without Language Server enabled? Or perhaps something wrong is cached on my machine? And can you share a screenshot if it's working, just to be sure we're using the same file and project for testing?

[madppiper]

Mine was turned off.

[madppiper]

And I used your project then created a new file and entered using … from your example. Are you trying on a specific file?

[ufechner7]

Yes, I try on the file examples/calculate_rotational_inertia.jl

This is the doc string of load_settings:

"""
    load_settings(project=PROJECT; relax=false)

Load the project with the given file name.

The project must include the path and the suffix .yaml .

## Parameters
- `project`: The name of the project file to load, defaults to the project that was loaded before.
- `relax`: If true, no section needs to be present in the settings.yaml file.
"""
function load_settings(project=PROJECT; relax=false)
    SETTINGS.segments=0
    se(project; relax)
end

Okay, I do get your description, but i also get additional infos on top (the top ones are wrong), but at the end i get the correct ones.

I have to check where I am messing that up.

Found it and fixed it:

I tested the new version, and it is much better!

Questions:

• why is there the line "KiteUtils.load_settings (from project source)"? Couldn't it be omitted? Does it add anything?
• if I click on "jump to source" nothing happens
• and why is there a line between "function load_settings(" and "load_settings(project=PROJECT; relax=false)"? And why is there the text load_settings twice?
