Mild annoyance to see from an inspector

I see this in 9.2. It may exist in earlier versions, too.

When I select a variable from the list, I can get a pop up message that interferes with what I want to do. The message is misleading, but more important is that I think it's unnecessary.

And I thought I removed all of those.

Did you disable Scintilla by chance?

I guess I do see some refs in the old color editor.
So, this obviously means you do have scintilla disabled

since Scintilla is unrestricted in this regard.

Try:

StsPowerTools parseTreeMaxMethodTextSize: SmallInteger largest

and I think you won't get it anymore.

If you see that message, then scintilla is definitely disabled.  And looking at your inspector...I can see that it is.
Disabling scintilla means you are using the old timerproc based StsColorText editor (and backing StsOSColorText osWidget).
The prompters for 'method too long to color' are only there.
Specifically,  StsColorText>>[paste | replace:toPos:value: | setString:] and StsOSColorText>>processCharacter:

It doesn't look like it. But, it might disabled by the GBS debugger for itself. (Fetching code from the GemStone server during the Scintilla callback is problematic.)

How would disabling Scintilla make that message occur?
