suppress hover-over text in editor?

I've hesitated to ask this for some time ... surely I'm missing a preference or setting ... but I'm at a loss to find it ... I'm generally grateful for oXygen's abundant hover-over text in the Editor and Results windows (DITA element and attribute definitions, inherited profiling metadata, character codes, OT errors, etc.). But sometimes during a demo or training, the hover-over text is distracting. Is there a setting I'm missing to disable hover-over text? -Alan -- Alan Houser Group Wellesley, Inc.

Hi Alan, Indeed I've seen people present for example pieces of XSLT content using Oxygen and then a large tooltip window appears while hovering over the XSLT content. In the Oxygen Preferences->"Editor / Content Completion / Annotations" page we have a setting named "Show annotations in tooltips" which should disable tooltips when hovering over content in an opened XML document. So maybe this will help a bit. But we do not have a setting to disable tooltips in a way globally, as you say in the DITA Maps Manager for example or in the results view. I added an internal issue based on your request to maybe add some kind of global tooltip off switch. For doing a demo with Oxygen using a projector to gain more screen space you can also use the Oxygen main menu Window->"Hide all toolbars" and "Hide editor tabs" actions.

Hi Radu, Thank you so much! I believe this setting will handle most of my issues with tooltips, since I'm usually showing XML documents or XSLT/XSL-FO. Thank you also for considering a global setting. I'm always grateful for your support! -Alan
