P4VS code lens integration shows all file-level changes for each function

Question

(I've looked far and wide but I can't even find anyone having the same problem, not to mention a fix or anything. Closest is this thread which just announces the feature...)

The way it currently works for me, the VS2019 code lens integration of P4VS (for C++ at least) is almost completely pointless. Each function has an indicator added, but the information in each is identical - namely the change history of the entire file :

According to this Microsoft article , I would expect to either get function-level change information that pertains only to that function or a single change summary of the file at the bottom of the editor. But instead I get the worst combination of both.

I'm mainly surprised that I can't find anyone else talking about this, so I assume something is misconfigured on my part. Can't find anything in the configuration options though...

Is this just a bad implementation by Perforce or is something wrong on my end?

Answer 1

I have just found out that it can be turned off by Visual Studio options.
