Press Ctrl + K, Ctrl + I, that's what you want

The corresponding cmd name in VS Keybindings is editor.action.showHover. On mac for me the key combo was:

⌘ Command + k

⌘ Command + i

You can also access it through your command palette by typing show hover. It will show you the current keybinding and you can execute it as well.

If you would like you can remap it like this:

{
"key": "ctrl+e",
"command": "editor.action.showHover",
"when": "editorTextFocus"
}

With that, if your cursor is within an error/warning squiggly line, you can hit ctrl+e to show what you would normally see with hover.

To make the box disappear, I am having to hit escape. It would be cool if there was a editor.action.toggleHover or something like that, but in the meantime this works great!

If you're using the VSCodeVim plugin, you can use gh to show the tooltip.

2021 Update- As far as I can tell, the new command that we're all looking for here is:

"Show Definition Preview Hover"

The shortcut for that command was unbound. I set it back to ctrl+h, which is what worked for me in the past. Here's more info-

Show Hover is the command, Ctrl+K Ctrl+I is the keybinding.

A simple way, which is also on the official site of Microsoft, is the simultaneous use of ctr + k + i are together.

Just make sure the cursor is on the desired area
