How to disable popup showing function parameters?

[rowbearto]

When I am in a language like Python or C++ I type a function name and press "(" it then creates a popup window that shows the various parameters of the function.

Is there a way to turn off this popup from coming up automatically? It gets in the way and I can't see things behind it that I want to see.

It also sometimes freezes the editor, I think because it is looking up the function signature.

I'd like to only bring this up on demand by pressing Alt+, instead of having it come up automatically by typing open (.

Turn off "Auto-display parameter information" (Tools>Options>Languages>[Category]>[Language]>Context Tagging)

When I upgraded from 27.0.1 to 27.0.2 I think it reverted to the old setting to auto-display parameter info.

How do disable this in SlickC?

Code: [Select]

#include "slick.sh"
#import "optionsxml.e"
#import "se/lang/api/LanguageSettings.e"
using se.lang.api.LanguageSettings;

defmain()
{
   // go through all the languages
   _str alllangs[];
   LanguageSettings.getAllLanguageIds(alllangs);
   foreach (auto lang in alllangs) {
      flags := LanguageSettings.getCodehelpFlags(lang);
      LanguageSettings.setCodehelpFlags(lang, flags & ~VSCODEHELPFLAG_AUTO_FUNCTION_HELP);
   }
}
