How to remove floating buttons on visuals pop up with every interation??

Please help! How do i stop these two objects from being activated everytime I touch a visual or add data to one. It's a bit in the way. I like using the side panes instead. I'm talking about the "Suggest a visual pane" and the two buttons with a column chart and paint brush that activate it (but never go away). Just want them gone....

To turn off the "suggest a visual pane" in Power BI, follow these steps:

  1. Open your Power BI Desktop application.
  2. Go to the File menu and select Options and settings.
  3. Click on Options.
  4. In the Options window, navigate to the Preview features section.
  5. Uncheck the box next to Suggest a visual.
  6. Click OK to apply the changes.

This should disable the "suggest a visual pane" feature in Power BI.
