This is just awful. It makes the sheet so cluttered and cumbersome.

Having a setting to toggle these off should be fairly trivial.

    It would be great to have the option to disable the "Used in Formula" display. The formula pop up gets in the way of navigating reading content. Lengthens the time taken to do basic functions, which isn't efficient.

    I agree. This pop up is extremely intrusive. Specifically for our general users. They do not need nor do they have access to the back end sheets. When they try to click on an item in the sheet, they have to click elsewhere to move the pop up. Sometime two or three times. There should be an option to turn this functionality off. Even better, to have the option to turn it off except for admins.

    I agree! This pop-up makes it really challenging to work in a Smartsheet filled with data being pulled into other sheets. I accidentally click on the pop up (or worse- the delete link within the pop-up) all the time. It's really frustrating and adds time to my work trying to get around the pop-up. The ability to turn this on/off would be really helpful (even at the admin level).

    When working in a spreadsheet, the hover boxes that pop up with formula or link information are annoying and inconvenient. Is there any way you can please remove them? They slow me down and get in the way.

    Please provide a way to disable the "Used in Formula" pop-up. This pop-up is constantly in the way of reading the cell and sometimes when I click on the cell I accidently click on the popup instead taking me to another view. Others have also made this complaint. See https://community.smartsheet.com/discussion/98705/remove-used-in-formula-tooltip. Thank you for your help here
