Android Studio is showing a popup window in the code editor. How can I get rid of it?

Question

I'm using Android Studio Arctic Fox Preview and it started to show me these popup windows in the editor displaying code that is currently out of my view. I couldn't find the name of this feature anywhere. How is it called and how do I make it go away?

I have the latest stable version and this super annoying feature is there too... It even goes beyond the Android Studio Window - it sometimes appears on my second screen! — Jiří Křivánek, Aug 06 '21 at 07:29
I have this exact same problem and posted about it here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68682622/android-studio-strange-code-sub-windows-after-upgrade-to-arctic-fox-2020-3-1 - I sure would like to fix this. I have Arctic Fox 2020.3.1. — JJJones_3860, Aug 11 '21 at 17:31

As JJJones_3860 mentioned in his comment, there's an answer to another question which seems to work and here it is:

Navigate to:

File > Settings... > Editor > Code Editing

under Refactorings > Specify refactoring options:

select In modal dialogs

Press OK.

This is a bug of Android Studio (Arctic Fox). When your IDE is showing a popup window, you need to restart your IDE.

File -> Invalidate Caches / Restart
