This is really driving me crazy !!
I am sure many developers out there love this feature, when tool tabs come darting out on mouseovers, like a jack russell on a double espresso, but it drives me insane.
I am partially signted and frequently have to locate my mouse pointer by shaking the mouse to move the pointer to a particular corner or side of the screen, so having things flyout all over the place, especially when some tools have to waste more time painting themsleves, makes me wanna scream.
If anyone knows how to turn this off, I would be gratefull and it would be even better if I could disable it for all of windows.
My thinking is that, if I wanna see something I will click and when I am done with it I will click away, is that really so hard.
Many thanks in advance
UPDATE
So I figured out that this is a Windows-wide delay setting for mouse over, menu behaviour
specified in the registry in number of milliseconds
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\Desktop\MenuShowDelay.
Mine was set to 8, and is the reason my menus were so frantic.
I changed this to the maximum allowable value of 65534 and no all my menus, submenus and tool windows only come out when I click them
