I tried this feature and it's extremely ugly. May be I'm getting old but I don't like all new Idea features. AI completion? Bad. Parameter hints? Bad. Rendered javadocs? Bad. I switched to VSCode for all but Java projects. It's not as good but least I don't have to spend time turning off all new features every patch. And Idea getting worse with every patch. Right now I can't use Idea for JS because it refuses to turn off parameter hints and I refuse to use it with parameter hints turned on.

I don't even remember last time I liked new Idea feature. They're breaking my workflow with every new release. And I can't stay on old release because I need new Java support which is not backported obviously.

Can't you remove those hints in settings? https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48123237/remove-paramete...

For Java I do. For JavaScript, as I said, it does not work because of bug or whatever. It worked for some time at previous version and stopped to work after upgrade. At this point I don't bother anymore and just use VScode for anything except Java.
