VS Code is constantly popping up tips etc around the caret. My personal experience is that they are more of a hindrance than a help 99% of the time. I am CONSTANTLY hitting escape to get rid of them so I can see my code.

Is there an option to have them triggered by a shortcut key rather than automatically as I type? This is the first editor I've come across where there's no clear way to do that.

Generally I really love VS Code, but this one feature makes it feel like I'm fighting the editor.

I've already got

"editor.quickSuggestions": false,

but it hasn't helped.

Thanks

I saw @joaomoreno had a fix for turning off parameter hint in #2972 but this time ppl wants to turn off everything.

"editor.parameterHints": false is a huge help : ) Sweet. tyvm :)

Closing as it seems disabling quick suggestions and parameter hints was enough.

When I type C# code in vscode, every time I type a character, a light bulb pops up (usually "Generate variable"). When I type another character, it disappears for an instant, then appears again. The result is rapid flashing whenever I type, which is seriously distracting!
