Intrusive Assistant Pop-Up Is Overriding Type Annotations

I’m no longer able to see a value’s type by double-clicking it. Instead, I get an AI pop-up to explain the value. Is this really necessary? Also, bug or no bug, how do I hide these buttons? I will never, ever want to use them and probably wind up clicking them by accident.

I’m no longer able to see a value’s type by double-clicking it.

This isn’t due to the Assistant tooltips, but an intentional change that hides cursor following widgets with text selection. Instead of double clicking on the “hit”, just moving the cursor to hit should work to show signature help.

Also, bug or no bug, how do I hide these buttons?

You can disable the Assistant tooltips via the “Code Assist” > “Enable Assistant Selection Tooltips” setting.

Thanks for the info. Disabling that setting hid the buttons when I just select, but they still appear when I hover over a value. Is there a way to hide them when I hover as well so I can keep the tooltips small?

There is no setting to disable the buttons on hover at the moment.

Thank you for the feedback - we’ll look at addressing this soon.

Why aren’t they disabled when you turn off Code Assist entirely?

The “Enable Code-Assist” setting only applies to the in-editor ML autocomplete, not the rest of “Assistant” at the moment.

This behavior is expected for the time being.

In an upcoming release, the “on hover” buttons will be controlled by the same setting as the selection tooltips.

Why is this enabled by default? This is intrusive and interferes with the workflow and user experience of many developers. If we wanted more ai features, we would have explicitly have enabled it.

The buttons are very intrusive and should at the very least be hidden by disabling the code assistant settings in studio settings
