VS Code Setting

This may seem silly but it's been really annoying to deal with for a while now. Whenever I use overloaded methods (for example the println or the add method on ArrayList) that can have either different type or number of arguments, I get this box (see image) that lets me arrow between different versions. Does anyone know how to remove this? It takes priority on up/down arrow keys which makes moving between lines of code very frustrating since I frequently use the arrow keys to navigate my code. Like I said, its a small thing, but it happens way to often to me to ignore anymore.

I came across parameter hints as well trying to fix this, but I already had them turned off. I'm not sure if its the same thing since it only happens when the method is overloaded and not on just one-off methods.

https://github.com/Microsoft/vscode/issues/28380 this seems to suggest it should fix it, so I'm wondering if I've done something somewhere else by accident to override it. Not sure.

Something strange is going on. There are two settings associated with parameter hints in the settings menu: enabled and cycle. The first should enable/disable while the second determines if you can infinitely arrow key up/down through them (cycle or not). Changing enable/disable has no effect, but changing cycle will make it so after reaching the end (10/10 in my screenshot) it will move the cursor, working as expected...why would one work but not the other? This is for hovering over code, which is normally fine. What I have is only on typing.

Too long to paste in one message, but here is a screenshot showing the settings.json. I could also send the whole thing if necessary.

Editing cycle has immediate effect, but editing enabled doesn't change anything

can you try the inlay hints then
Pigpen
PigpenOPā€¢5d ago
Did, but I already had inlay/inline hints turned off as well since they just make the code longer. Also, they are actually in the code as opposed to being a pop up

^ permanently in the code as opposed to a temporary pop up that takes key press priority
