Problem
How do you turn off the autocomplete/help-tips in PgAdmin4? They're driving me insane.
Every cursor movement and keypress causes a "Loading..." overlay to appear, which either displays nothing or displays a useless "help" dropdown, in case I want to replace my, say, SELECT keyword, with one of a hundred other SQL statements.
I've scanned the File->Preferences option, and disabled all "auto-complete" options I could find, but that hasn't disabled it.

Solution
From the menu found by following "File > Preferences > Query Tool > Auto Complete", I found that toggling "Autocomplete on key press" successfully turned this off. However, I had to close my query tool window and open a new one for it to take effect.
