When using the Atom text editor, when I hover my mouse over a function signature, a tool-tip appears (see image below):
How can I disable it?
Thank you, happy to supply more info as needed.
Assuming you're using Ide Python package, you can disable Jedi Hover option in it's settings.

This can be done if i hover the cursor in the (), but i prefer to use keyboard.
VS Code indeed provides such keyboard shortcuts. Click the code you want to see documentation then press Ctrl+K Ctrl+I to show hover:
More keybindings please click Manage--> keyboard Shortcuts.
I'd like to get automatic context help in VS2017, similar to what is displayed inside spyder, when I click on an object that has help for it in the python manuals.
I's this possible?
interactive window example from spyder
I'm looking for a window that is part of the IDE, and not a pop-up that is shown when "." is pressed
You can hover your mouse over an object or method to see a tooltip of it.
You can also use the dot operator(.) to bring up intellisense for a list of properties and methods. If intellisense doesn't immediately pop up after pressing the . key, you can also press ctrl+space to force it open.
Lastly, you can press F12 with your cursor in an object, method or variable to go to its definition.
How can I configure Pycharm such that I always have the documentation pop up every time I hover over a method or an class?
For example in eclipse:
If I hover the cursor over a c++ function or a class, I can see the documentation for the same in a small pop up window.
Is there some plugin or setting in Pycharm where I can enable the same?
PS: I know PyCharm already has F1 button that can do the same, I was just looking for a hover alternative as I am used to the eclipse way of doing it
Just for completeness, in current versions of PyCharm (in the years 2016+), quick documentation is available on hover and can be configured in Preferences > Editor > General > Other
The feature is called "Quick Documentation" and the default shortcut for this is CTRL+Q or ALT+MOUSE BUTTON 2.
As far as I know, there is no way to enable it on-hover (personally, I found this very annoying in Eclipse).
In PyDev, when cursor hovers function name, tooltip with docstring text appears.
Is there way to assign a hotkey on this event, for viewing docstrings using only keyboard?
As far as I know, there is no direct keyboard shortcut for this when working with PyDev. For JDT, CDT or PDT F2 should work, but it does not in PyDev.
However, as an alternative, you can hit CTRL+SPACE which brings up the content assist, which will show the documentation right next to it.
Btw: the hover tooltip does not show the docstring only, but the whole content of a method.
Here is how the content assist should look like:

I'm 100% certain that I have, in the past, seen a matplotlib toolbar with a button which brought up a dialogue allowing the marker styles, line colours etc for the plot to be changed interactively.
This seemed really useful but it's definitely not in the current standard toolbar as documented here and I cannot remember what I was using at the time!
Does anyone have any ideas?!
thanks
As bmu says, it is possible in Spyder (and as far as I know it is so by default). There is an extra button on the toolbar (a green check), as you can see here:
This option must be somewhere in matplotlib. When I do a GUI with matplotlib widget with toolbar, the button for the "figure options" is available. If I just use the plot command, the button is missing.
Edit:
I found http://matplotlib.1069221.n5.nabble.com/How-to-modify-the-navigation-toolbar-easily-in-a-matplotlib-figure-window-td39172.html . If you change your backend in matplotlibrc to Qt4Agg ("backend : Qt4Agg") the button is shown.
