Description

Determines whether Help Hints are enabled or disabled for the entire application.

Use ShowHint to choose whether to display Help Hints. If ShowHint is True, Help Hints are enabled; if ShowHint is False, Help Hints are disabled. The default value is True. Help Hints are specified in the Hint property.

Setting ShowHint for the application to False disables all Help Hints, regardless of the value of the ShowHint properties for individual controls.

Tip: You can customize the hint window by creating a custom descendant of THintWindow and assigning it to the HintWindowClass global variable.
