[GitHub] [netbeans] notzed opened a new issue, #5719: a way to disable tooltips inside the source editor

notzed opened a new issue, #5719:
URL: https://github.com/apache/netbeans/issues/5719

   ### Description
   
   When selecting a function variant for auto-completion a single-line toolip is shown above the current entry line, which purportedly shows the current argument bolded as the parameters are filled out.
   
   I would like this to be able to be disabled, or significantly altered in implementation such as moving it to the status line at the bottom of the window.
   
   
   ### Use case/motivation
   
   This behaviour is **infuriating**!  It partially covers up the 2 preceding lines of source which usually provide context for the function call so interferes with the coding process.
   
   I never read it and I find myself pressing ESC hundreds of times a day, sometimes hundreds of times an hour, to be able to read the sourcecode it hides or simply to remove the visual distraction.
   
   To access the information it is supposed to present I rather active the auto-complete popup manually afterwards.

   Yes but NetBeans in general doesn't show them all at once, they show one implementation and then the hint "+ 8 Overrides" but I dunno which context and in which language support.

   @notzed all good. I linked the PR with the issue. I am not sure if you can even do that without having commit rights.
   
   @Chris2011 sorry, I don't know what you are talking about :). The tooltip shows overloaded methods which are applicable to the context (based on which parameters are already set and where your cursor is).

   I need to check whether I see the documentation about the "x overrides available." could be that this is from an other IDE.

   In general that popup should not show all of them by default. Afaik for Java or other languages it shows one impl and the rest shows + n overrides. And this here is this case about having more implemantations of the same function.

   Sorry for the delay, yeah that's the one but I use C-SPACE to show the completion thing and docs.
   
   Anyway I got so sick of it I finally wrote a patch for it:

   Well I suppose that isn't quite the one, it's the one that shows just the selected method and it's current argument.
   
   e.g.
   
   ![pain](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/51409789/235269236-4781f27d-32eb-4d28-a02d-4177abbb4016.png)
   
   @mbien : Sorry I tried to link the bug as per the example in [1] but that's obviously incorrect, and it's been so long i forgot how did it last time.
