press the “Ctrl” key and then hover over a node in graph view
Page preview’s pop-up will appear.
Put your cursor away from the node.
I am also able to reproduce this issue in the sandbox vault (or a just any vault started in restricted mode, no snippets and default theme).
Expected result
Page preview’s pop-up should disappear after I take the cursor away from the node in graph view
Actual result
Sometimes it does disappear but sometimes it does not. Also, this issue is specific to graph view. In other cases, like Editing view, files and bookmarks etc. it is disappearing properly, without any issue.

Additional information
Like I said, it’s disappearing sometimes but sometimes it’s not.
Expect to see the preview disappear after I move the mouse away (+ let go of Ctrl if “Require Ctrl to trigger page” for Graph view is disabled).
Actual result
Hover preview stays on screen after moving mouse away and even after clicking different files and also hover-previewing other files. Disappears after I click to edit then click away.

I am experiencing the same issue on Mac. How is there no response to this post, is this a rare bug?
Also I don’t know if this a bug or the intended effect, but if I bring my mouse cursor to hover over a node and then click cmd to get the preview nothing happens, I have to press and hold the cmd button before I bring my cursor to hover over the node in order to get the page preview pop up which is very annoying. Also I can’t go from node to node with the cmd button pressed to see the pop ups, there seems to be some kind of time delay for the popup that I have to wait before it will popup the new nodes preview
This happened to me too. My solution was to install the page preview hover editor plugin, which corrects the errors in the core plugin, which by nature is already very primitive, as obsidian hasn’t corrected these errors in a long time.
We probably have a common function that’s holding us back, but it’s hard to figure out.
I noticed that on my obsidian the page preview opens without me even pressing control, the torture is intensified by the fact that we wait for the program to close it, instead of having an x icon, like the hover editor has
