 not sure where to ask:

 is there a way to not have the help tooltip/popup/hover window opening in spyder?

 since updating to 4.0 the window does not close when you change between windows:

 (Spyder maintainer here) Yes, there is. You need to go to the menu

 Tools > Preferences > Completion and linting > Introspection

 and deactivate the option called Enable hover hints.

 Note: The issue you posted above with the hover not hiding when giving focus to other applications will be fixed in our next bugfix version (4.1), to be released in a couple of months.
