### Description When selecting a function variant for auto-completion a single-line toolip is shown above the current entry line, which purportedly shows the current argument bolded as the parameters are filled out. I would like this to be able to be disabled, or significantly altered in implementation such as moving it to the status line at the bottom of the window. ### Use case/motivation This behaviour is **infuriating**! It partially covers up the 2 preceding lines of source which usually provide context for the function call so interferes with the coding process. I never read it and I find myself pressing ESC hundreds of times a day, sometimes hundreds of times an hour, to be able to read the sourcecode it hides or simply to remove the visual distraction. To access the information it is supposed to present I rather active the auto-complete popup manually afterwards. ### Related issues _No response_ ### Are you willing to submit a pull request?
