Sublime PHP method signature and description on autocomplete

Question

I really like sublime but I have 1 major issue stopping me from migrating from Netbeans:

I need sublime autocomplete to show function description and method signature (i'm working with Yii framework and I need to know exactly what each function does, returns and passed arguments types).

I tried installing several plugins but none worked...if there is such a way then i'm missing it.

please see below the plugin i tried. i found this to work in JS but not PHP. — Danny Valariola, Jan 28 '13 at 18:01

You are just in time for Sublime Text 3 !

Symbol Indexing. Sublime Text now scans the files in your project, and builds an index of which files contain which symbols. This backs the new features Goto Definition and Goto Symbol in Project, both of which are available from the Goto menu. Goto Definition takes you to the definition of the symbol under the caret, while Goto Symbol in Project prompts you to select a symbol via fuzzy matching, and then takes you to the definition of that symbol.

This doesn't work on autocomplete tho. Sure, you can go to definition, but if you type Class:: and expect the autocomplete to only show definitions inside Class, that won't work (at least not here) – Sep 03 '13 at 08:32

you might want to try the code intel plugin

otherwise you could use zencoding see here for tips

alternatively alt + click should do it!

i tried almost every plugin available, also tried ZEN, INTEL, and much more....none does the trick – Danny Valariola Jan 28 '13 at 18:00
ctrl+r is for symbol search, keep in mind that i'm in Yii framework and not all method reside in the same file. Also there is no description, it's just goto – Danny Valariola Jan 29 '13 at 08:21
