Issue Details

I am using LabWindows CVI and when I enter a new variable, a window appears and I want to remove it but I cannot find the option to close it. The window looks like this:

Solution

This is the completions window, which is seen if you use <Ctrl+Space> or click Edit>>Show Completions.

By default when you start typing a word it will show up to give possible results, but this can be disabled in Options>>Editor Preferences and unchecking the "Show completions when typing new word" option:
