the fact that it was screwing up osd text (that's not pixel based by design) causes more problems than smaller popup was ever intended to solve. and it's not branch or tasproject size, because screenshots are stored in the same resolution as your emulator screen. so I don't even know which problems it was solving. if it was made to shrink because originally it couldn't expand outside tastudio, this has been resolved a while ago, and we can afford covering as much user screen as they already cover with emuhawk. unless they complain, then it can return as an option.
only update opacity by 1/8th every 40ms. allows to skip fading in if mouse moves around at regular speed, and only pops up if deliberately hovering over the cell
also reduce magic numbers a bit
