Version: 1.47.3
Hi,
I’ve noticed that the latest version of n8n is a bit popup happy, showing ‘helpful’ popups when you writing an expression, sometimes completely covering the code that you’re trying to look at.
I really wish I could turn this off. It’s not very helpful at all.
Kind regards,
Jos
Hi,
Sorry for the tone of the previous message, I was really rather irritated at the time. I still think that it would be nice if you could turn these automatic popups off, like you can do in most professional editors.
Currently I have to switch to “Fixed” in order to edit some of my expressions, but then I lose the live preview, and I also often forget to switch back 
Kind regards,
Jos
I get your frustrations, I have them sometimes as well with these popups.
Shall we convert this to a feature request?
I have passed this on to the team. But a feature request topic never hurts!
Hi Bram,
Sure!
Kind regards,
Jos
Hi Jos! Can I just quickly ask - is the popup information itself useful and timely with the placement being off, or is the entire feature useless to you? Thanks
Hi,
It’s mostly the placement, the autocompletion can be useful sometimes, (although I don’t really need it, and find it a bit distracting, since you’re only writing small pieces of code).
Kind regards,
Jos
The popup should basically be placed outside of where the code is. Maybe make a specific little textbox for it on the side for example.
And is it mainly the popup that appears after you type . (autocomplete), or the popup that appears when your cursor is over/in a function (context)?
Hi,
It’s the one when I type.
Kind regards,
Jos
should be a settings feature to disable and enable.
