Hi @Cobus Linde 

This is not possible. Rovo is a part of your subscription plan and you can't hide it.

It's ridiculous that this can't be cancelled. Why would any developer present a constantly infuriating and distracting pop-up right in the user's eyeline with no option to remove it? I do not need or want AI recommendations every time I select a word to apply a color - or at any other time when using Confluence. This type of poor decision-making and UI/UX design incompetence is unbelievable.

Cool, thanks.. Didn't expect anything different from an Atlassian product

Back to the 1000 papercuts I receive each day when using JIRA, Bitbucket, etc

*edit: oh wow, wonderful.. "First Answer Posted" badge! this makes me forget all about how rubbish JIRA is

Hi @Cobus Linde ,

Short answer probably is - you cannot :/
You would need to disable Rovo entirely to disable this when highlighting text.

There's a feature request related to floating menu, which would then be related to what you're asking: CONFCLOUD-81716: Ability to disable floating menu options/selection toolbar when text is highlighted 
I'd suggest leaving a vote and comment on that one 👀

There's also this one that requests more granular controls when it comes to specific AI/Rovo features: ROVO-152: Separate options to enable Atlassian Intelligence and Rovo 

Cheers,
Tobi
