extern type variables discoveries

 

I just discovered that when I type a period (.) immediately after an extern variable, I get a pop-up window with a lot of properties in mql4 environment. However I have not known the use of the pop-up window properties. What exactly do they mean. Thank you in advance. See examples below:

Seems more like a bug than a feature in this case.

You can read about MetaEditor features in the documentation.

Hmmm funny! Bug you say. And where would the bug be coming from if I may ask?
