I just tried to access my embedded docs on a couple of functions and all I
get is the parameter list - the embedded docs are not visible.  This was
working before and I checked the editor settings to make sure they were
correct.

What's the trick to get it back?

Here's what happened:

At some point, all of the html tags got edited so that a space was inserted
after the "<" and before the ">" so that

/// <summary>

became

/// < summary >

etc.
This caused the intellicode system to not recognize the embedded
documentation.
IMO, this is a little picky, but maybe it can't be helped.  However, if
possible, it should be fixed.

Unfortunately, this is the way that HTML is defined.  Try adding/removing
spaces in the H1 tags below and see what happens in your browser:

<html>
  <head>
    <title>Test</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1 >Hello World!< /h1>
    Hiya.
  </body>
</html>
