You can set the value to false to fully turn off this behavior.

Parameters

value - System.Double

The value that configures the formattingmarksrefreshdelay.

UnsafeInline(System.Boolean)

When set to false, the decoration applied by the Formatting tool dropdown will be skipped and the values will appear as plain text options.

Parameters

value - System.Boolean

The value that configures the unsafeinline.
