With the AutoDoc feature for inherited description you can automatically copy documentation for class members from inherited symbols. This also works with descriptions in other namespaces, by using the Doc-O-Matic's Namespace features on the [General Settings] > Source Parsing > Namespaces and the [General Settings] > Documentation > Topic Processing page. In this case the time required to process topics might be increased.
Assume you have the Base::Func function in the Base base class, which is documented, and you override the function as Derived::Func. If you do not write comments for Derived::Func, Doc-O-Matic copies the comment from Base::Func to this function.
Note: Doc-O-Matic copies comments not only for the direct successor but all undocumented successors. If there are multiple inherited descriptions available, the nearest in the hierarchy will be copied.
