Hm, another one, sorry: When I hover in the outline pane, after about a second a black rectangle appears with the text I'm hovering on, repeating that very text but in white font colour. Searched for "tip" (hoping to find tooltips, tool-tips, tool tips or the like), but cannot figure how to stop this, as there's no added value to repeat the text in a different colour I already see in the outline pane.
