I assume Latex Suite is creating that overview. (It looks the most likely from your plugin list.) Obsidian doesn’t have that feature built-in.

Best step is to check the plugin’s GitHub issues for this. If it’s not already there, you could open an issue to let the developer know.

https://github.com/artisticat1/obsidian-latex-suite/issues

…or whichever plugin is responsible.

Before opening an issue, I would disable the other plugins and any snippets to make sure it’s not from a conflict between them and the responsible plugin.

Obsidian doesn’t have that feature built-in.

It is? maybe I am wrong and its somehow configured wrongly, but with a normal tooltip I get the same duplication and tooltip cutoff.
which is handled by obsidian/codemirror

never seen it before

opened the sandbox just now, typed thatdudeimaad’s math ($p\land q$), and do not see an overview/tooltip, checked the three editing and reading views, tried with cursor on line and mouseover

Where in default Obsidian are you seeing it that I might be missing?

not talking about the math itself but the tooltip rendering done by obsidian

OP is asking about what they called the “overview”—the text above the math in their image

the overview is created by using codemirror tooltips

took way too long to figure it out. the table is another codemirror view… so the tooltip gets cut off…
for a mwe see CodeMirror Tooltip Example.

the duplication is a bug? that can’t be fixed i think. I thought I got rid of it while testing but no and wouldn’t make sense as there are 2 editorview.
As for the cutting off, that’s fixable but would still attribute it to obsidian as its undocumented

i’mma bow out now. see you around!

(edited within the first five minutes because the original came across more aloof than I meant or was feeling. My apologies!)

and I should also add: I see what you’re saying now. So in addition to the apology, that was my bad with misunderstanding what you were saying
