Layout (X)L pop-up windows default position

Hello,

Is there a way to set the default position where the various pop-up windows (i.e. "Copy", "Move", "Create Ruler", etc.) appear in Layout (X)L? These continuously appear around the middle of the screen and present an annoyance. Having them appear consistently in one of the corners would be nice.

Alternatively, is there a way to turn these off altogether?

Thanks in advance!
