I'm on Sublime Text btw.

Hi @agilesteel, can you explain what's your use case? Some context would help in order to understand what you're asking.

agilesteel commented 5 years ago

Oh it's just distracting. I don't always want things to pop up only because I hover over them. It would be good if I could hold Ctrl for example and then hover. Because right now I have to make sure that I don't accidentally position my mouse over something that can produce a popup. In general popups are like notifications to me. I want to have more control over them or as a measure of last resort disable them.

Hi @agilesteel,

you can bind the hover info to a key binding, the command name is lsp_hover
as far as I know it isn't possible to disable the popup showing up on mouse hover

You might want to create a feature request in the sublime plugin repo

For this kind of questions gitter chat is better suited:

LSP for sublime: https://gitter.im/SublimeLSP/Lobby
Metals: https://gitter.im/scalameta/metals

@agilesteel thanks for the question! There is not much we can do on the Metals side for this particular issue since it's the responsibility of the Sublime LSP package to decide when to trigger hover.

Thx, I was looking for the gitter links but somehow missed them.
