Intellisense also doesn't work across multiple R files. Are these two somehow connected (I assume they both depend on making ASTs of all the files, not just the one currently opened) or should I start a new issue?

It is the same task. Basically building and maintaining a database of symbols and tracking changes.

Surely almost everyone using VS+RTVS to develop R code will want to write code that calls functions across files and will therefore find the absence of cross-file intellisense to be a hit to their productivity. For my current project, I have many functions with complicated argument lists and “No intellisense” is a showstopper so I’ve switched back to RStudio. Is there a way for this issue to be promoted on the list of priorities? I wish I had the skills to fix it myself…
