Non-repeatable comments for Enum/Struct members?

IDA General
1

I’m trying to add non-repeatable comments to some enum members, but it seems they only support repeatable comments.

I thought I saw a comment from hex-rays somewhere that they are both supported, but can’t seem to find it. Is there some setting governing this that I’m missing?

IDA 9.1.250226

From 9.0sp1 release notes:

local types: removed "repeatable" checkbox from the comment form since all such comments are repeatable

was that what You mean ?

Thanks for that. Yes, that seemingly describes what I’m observing.

I guess this is a good argument for just buckling down, typing all struct members that are enums, and then propagating the enum values through the disassembly. Then I guess I don’t really need a comment at all.
