Thank you for your response.  I read the new features section but I didn't realize I needed to add "nil".  I am only an ESS novice but I got into the habit of disabling the args because my functions would expand the minibuffer to half the window size to show my 20 or so args.  It is just a personal preference for disabling it.

Thanks again.

Subject: Re: [ESS] Cannot disable args from showing in minibuffer


A general advice, if something went unexpected in a new version, read
the new features section. All this stuff is documented there. Eldoc was
redesigned and moved into the core. You can deactivate it by customizing
ess-use-eldoc or just by:

(setq ess-use-eldoc nil)

But, why would you like to disable it in the first place?
