Selection intent pop-up NX7.5
(OP)
Is there a way to disable the curser pop-up for selection intent in NX7.5?
It is constantly in my way, and I have gotten used to flicking my mouse between clicks to throw it off into blank space.

Preferences -> Selection
...and in the 'QuickPick' section of the dialog, toggle the 'QuickPick on Delay' option OFF and hit OK.
Now when you are selecting something with the cursor the the 3 dots (...) will not appear until you have held down MB1 for about half a second. In this way you now have complete control over when QuickPick is or is not launched.

The one I'm referring to is the one that places single curve, chain curves, etc. that now shows up at the tip of my curser when picking curves for a boundary in mfg or extrude in modeling.
Is this the same?

Now there's no option which will disable this behavior, however if you simply move your cursor away from the mini-toolbar or press MB1, it will disappear. Note that if you're running on Windows 7 the mini-toolbar will appear translucent, making it less noticeable since you can see thru it.
