I sent the following reply to Brian a while ago. Forgot to carbon-copy it to the list. Please, the problem is still open, and I am sure that there is a simple solution. If somebody knows, please let me know!
Hi Brian! Thanks a lot for the quick answer, but I'm afraid we mean s.th. different. I didn't mean the panels which pop up, but I meant the self-defined math-macros. So for example, when I have defined in the command line (<alt-x>) "math-macro justastupidexample 1", and then I enter in mathmode my new macro "\justastupidexample test", then - whenever the cursor crosses the macro, it pops up and the whole stupid name of the macro becomes visible. This was a new (annoying) feature of 1.4 (or even earlier?) but now there seems to be a way to avoid it again, and I'd love to know, how! Do you see what I mean? Or did you have this in mind anyway?
