\[severity:It’s more difficult to complete my work\]
Some method parameters may need a hefty amount of documentation. Unfortunately, this then gets truncated in the hint when calling the method:

The same parameter’s documentation is not cut-off in the method definition:

![HintInDefinition.png](https://aka.ms/dc/image?name=B54f221443b0248b2b35139dba24e63d6638753727066708939_HintInDefinition.png&tid=54f221443b0248b2b35139dba24e63d6638753727066708939)

Please consider increasing the maximum height of the hint. Also, showing a scrollbar when the text can no longer fit would probably be a good idea.
