How to stop Android Studio documentation panel appearing

Question

I've recently upgraded to Android Studio 3.3.1 and I have noticed the documentation panel now appears whenever I start typing something or do ctrl-space completion. I can't find a way to stop it doing this; I've undocked it, unpinned it, and specified "remove from sidebar" but it just keeps coming back.

What is the point of "remove from sidebar" if it just reinserts itself as soon as I start typing in the editor?

This would be slightly less annoying if it didn't frequently lock up AS while it attempts to get documentation when I'm editing XML files. It's really annoying and driving me mad.

Answer 1

万一其他人遇到了麻烦，我发现最好的解决方案是抓住面板的左边缘，将其紧靠主窗口的右侧关闭，从而有效地将其隐藏起来。

Answer 2

Untick this, I occasionally enable it via a keyboard shortcut (I think) and the panel pops open when I hover over a method or class.
