Is there some way to disable the popups on visualizations? I have to be really careful with where I place my mouse pointer to avoid these panels showing up everywhere. They obstruct the view for all visualizations they cover, and the constant changes following the pointer exactly in the focus view are truly irritating.

Hi @andrask, I am afraid at the moment it's not possible. I see that we don't have it on our roadmap yet, so you can submit a [feature request](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new?assignees=&labels=&template=Feature_request.md).

Thank you @Marta_Bondyra . I'll try to open a feature request.

In the meantime here is a simple Tampermonkey script to hide those tooltips. It's not great but works and helps me keep my sanity. 🙂

```auto
// ==UserScript==
// @name Hide the Elastic tooltips
// @namespace http://<kibana server>/app
// @version 0.1
// @description Hide tooltips in kibana
// @author You
// @match http://<kibana server>/app/*
// @grant none
// ==/UserScript==

(function hideThosePeskies() {
    var v = document.getElementsByClassName('echTooltipPortal__invisible')
    if (v.length) {
        v.forEach( i => {i.style.visibility='hidden';} )
    }
    setTimeout(hideThosePeskies, 5000)
})()

```
