1142 If the information for the popup is obtained asynchronously, use "popuphidden"
1143 in 'completeopt'. The info popup will then be initally hidden and
1144 |popup_show()| must be called once it has been filled with the info. This can
1145 be done with a |CompleteChanged| autocommand, something like this: >
1146 set completeopt+=popuphidden
1147 au CompleteChanged * call UpdateCompleteInfo()
1148 func UpdateCompleteInfo()
1149 " Cancel any pending info fetch
1150 let item = v:event.completed_item
1151 " Start fetching info for the item then call ShowCompleteInfo(info)
1152 endfunc
1153 func ShowCompleteInfo(info)
1154 let id = popup_findinfo()
1155 if id
1156 call popup_settext(id, 'async info: ' .. a:info)
1157 call popup_show(id)
