Description:
A table has generated a huge join (unintentionally) which if you hover over the table containing the join generates a huge yellow box that takes up the whole screen. There is no way to get rid of the yellow box and so you must force quit workbench.

This has bad consequences if you are mid development

How to repeat:
See above

Hover over the table

Suggested fix:
Ability to disable to the yellow popup box or alternatively better rendering of the yellow box to prevent it taking over the whole screen

Not really the same. The issue is caused by the yellow boxes not having a close option other than mousing off - but if the yellow box has covered the screen you can't mouse off.

Problem is arising form 6.1.4

Thank you for the feedback. Are you able to provide a screenshot of that issue?. Also try 6.1.7. Thanks.

There should be a way to turn off the yellow pop ups in preferences.

Thank you for the feedback.

I cannot repeat described behavior with 6.2 series. Please try with current version 6.2.4 and, if problem still exists, provide problematic model.
