Please file an Icicles bug (using `M-x icicle-send-bug-report') if you think
there is a problem. Provide a clear recipe, starting with `emacs -Q' (no init
file, ~/.emacs) to reproduce what you see.
I cannot tell anything from the cryptic description you gave so far.
Here's how to use `M-.' in Icicle mode:
1. M-.
2. Type the text you want to match - e.g. `info'.
3. Hit `S-TAB' to see all matches, or type something (e.g. `face') to see
everything that matches that text also. You see the matches in buffer
*Completions*.
4. Hit `C-next' to vist the (source file) matches in sequence. Or hit `next' to
cycle and choose a match, then hit `C-RET' to visit it. Or type some more, to
narrow the set of matches. (IOW, you can either complete your input or cycle
among completion candidates.)
Use `RET' instead of `C-RET' if you just want to visit a single match.
You can match several patterns, as an intersection, using `S-SPC' (progressive
completion). E.g., you can match `face' and `blue':
`M-. info RET face M-SPC blue'. That lets you browse all `info' tags that
contain both strings: `face' and `blue'.
You can change the pattern to match at any time (after you enter the initial
pattern, e.g. `info', using RET). E.g., remove `face' from the minibuffer and
type `file' instead, to find `info' tags that contain `file'.
