Andrew, two observations:

Firstly, if you double-click on the "Pop-up Hints" box, then guess what?
The pop-up hints go away.

Secondly, if you adopt a confrontational attitude like that on a list full
of people who are quite fond of using the most productivity-enhancing IDE
they have ever seen (especially after you have only "barely begun this
project") then don't expect to be taken too seriously.

Cheers,
Dan/tastapod

If you're going to get so upset over a bug that you want to stop using their
product, perhaps you shouldn't be using the EAP build.  This build is buggy
and everyone knows it.   Its not fair for you to say the product sucks when
you're using a beta build.

Subject: [Eap-bugs] Annoying popup for unknown class



I'm trying out IDEA Ariadna 629 on Linux, and I begin by setting up my
project and start typing my first class:

package com.elharo.xml;

public class Node {

  public Document getDocument() {

  }


}

And then things get weird. I haven't written the Document class yet.
I've barely begun this project that's going to involve dozens of classes
that reference each other. And yet IDEA keeps popping up this annoying
little blue box insisting that I press Alt+Enter to choose
javax.swing.text.Document or some such. I don't want to do that. That's
not what this method is going to return. But IDEA just won't shut up!
Every time I do or type anything that damned blue box pops up again!` It
is one of the most annoying things I have ever seen in an IDE. I know
this code won't compile yet. I just started it. I don't need to be
reminded of that constantly. I tried turning off all the code completion
features, but the blue box keeps popping up. 

I can't put up with this. This alone is enough to stop me from using,
buying, or recommending IDEA. There may be other good features in it,
but I can't get past this.
