No parameternames shown after Ctl+Space on serviceprogram

Since we use serviceprograms a lot in our company, we need to know the parameter names instead of the parameter types when pressing Ctrl+Space in the sourcecode.
char(3) int(5) int(5) char(3) is not meaningful to the developers
We know that the names are visible in the outlineview, but in a program with 50+ serviceprogram-procedures, it is not convenient to grab the mouse and search in there.


Use Case:

Create serviceprogram for other developers
Developers want to use those, but don?t know the parameters
RDi shows parameternames, type and length after pressing Ctrl+Space
