Slightly annoying popup (Not actually a bug)

[srheede]

Type: Bug

I'm working on a Flutter project so I'm not sure if the popup is from a Flutter or Dart extension or if it's a VS Code feature. The popup shows when you hover over declaired class instance and it gives you information about the class (variable names, ect.), which is all great. The popup is a nuasance though when you are at the top of the screen because it shifts over the text where you have the class instance it is giving you information about, which then blocks you from editing that text. I saw there is an option to switch off the popup in the settings but I find the popup useful and don't want to switch it off completely. If it can just prioritize my access to the actual text vs showing the popup, that would be great.
