I recently moved from Eclipse to Intellij idea and i'm trying to customize it. I was wondering whether is posible to disable the description popup messages on the highlighting level, I don't want to disable the inspections, only the message because when the cursor is over the scrollbar, the popup blocks the scrollbar. I've already searched in settings, editor, inspection, but i haven't find how to disable it:

  • I don't think this is possible. And, it shouldn't matter that the message is above the scrollbar -- it shouldn't block it. – Software Engineer Jan 15 '15 at 19:51

    yes, it shouldn't, but it does. When I try to drag the scrollbar, if a message pop ups, it consumes the click and I end dragging nothing. – ILovemyPoncho Jan 15 '15 at 20:01
  • I've just tried to replicate your results, but in Idea 13 this message /always/ pops up to the left of the scroll bar. – Software Engineer Jan 15 '15 at 20:31
  • I'm seeing popups to the left of the scrollbar in WebStorm, but in Android Studio there are popups that cover it (and consume the click). Maybe there's a plugin that is responsible, but I haven't tracked it down yet. – ProjectJourneyman Jan 12 '16 at 16:19

There is no possibility to disable those popups. They are intended to be transparent for all mouse operations on the scrollbar, and I wasn't able to reproduce the problem that you describe (that they interfere with dragging the scrollbar).
