Coverflow view - turn off "caption"

Is there a setting / preference for turning off the little white-box "caption" at the bottom of the Coverflow view? It often blocks the content I'm trying to see.

Thanks in advance;

Welcome to the forums!

Are you talking about the cover view in Finder? What version of OS X, what Mac? When I go to that view in Finder on my system, the file/folder name appears for a few seconds and is then replaced by two arrows. None of that cover up anything on the image view on 99% of the things I tried. In fact, it was 100%, but I didn't exhaustively test it on every file/folder.

Thanks for the welcome!

Yes, I'm talking about the Cover Flow view in Finder. Mac Mini / OS/X Yosemite (10.10.2). When using Cover Flow, there's a little white caption in the view box, and it often gets in the way of what I'm looking for. Wondering if I can turn it off. Screenshot below.

Thanks!

Yep, that's it. Wait a couple of seconds, it goes away.

Great idea... But (with all due respect) not happening on my Mac. Been sitting on the same pic - just for a little test - for 5+ minutes now. Still got the caption.

No, you can't turn it off. If you did, you wouldn't have a clue what any of the folders are without needing to look at the name below.

If you want to see more of an individual item, would suggest you hit the space bar to get a preview of it.

The whole thing is sort of screwy here and what happens with the displayed file/folder name depends on whether it's a folder/file and what type of file it is and whether you have the cursor on the item or somewhere else on the screen and it doesn't always do the same thing, even with the same file.
