Hide (or make transparent) the code completion dropdown
Is it possible to temporarily hide (or make transparent) the code completion dropdown by pressing a key?
I believe this is possible in Visual Studio by pressing and holding the control key.
It's a really useful feature if the dropdown is covering up some other code which would influence which suggestion you want to choose.

Hello Jeff,
Regrettably, Rider doesn't have such option. There is a feature request for IntelliJ-based IDEs: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-126993. Please feel free to upvote it.
What I can suggest as a workaround is to disable automatic popup (File | Settings | Editor | General | Code Completion -> Show suggestions as you type) and call completion explicitly via
Ctrl+Space.Thanks for that Julia. I'll upvote the request.
In the meantime I'll see if having code completion trigger manually suits my workflow.
