visual studio 2013 - How to hide reference counts in VS2013?

Question

Visual Studio 2013 introduced a new feature where it shows you how many times each of your methods are used.

I don't find it very useful, and it messes up the spacing of my file. How do I disable it? Can't seem to find the option.

Answer 1

I guess you probably are running the preview of VS2013 Ultimate, because it is not present in my professional preview. But looking online I found that the feature is called Code Information Indicators or CodeLens, and can be located under

Tools → Options → Text Editor → All Languages → CodeLens

(for RC/final version)

or

Tools → Options → Text Editor → All Languages → Code Information Indicators

(for preview version)

That was according to this link. It seems to be pretty well hidden.

In Visual Studio 2013 RTM, you can also get to the CodeLens options by right clicking the indicators themselves in the editor:
