TdxScreenTipRepository.ShowDescription Property

Specifies whether to show an enhanced or a standard ScreenTip.

#Declaration

Delphi
property ShowDescription: Boolean read; write; default True;

#Property Value

Type Default
Boolean True

#Remarks

An enhanced ScreenTip contains three sections – header, description, and footer. Each section can display an explanatory image and/or a descriptive text (see the section’s Glyph and Text properties).

A standard ScreenTip only shows a header section containing a descriptive text.

The ShowDescription property is applied to all ScreenTips contained in the repository. Set this property to True to use enhanced ScreenTips. Otherwise, standard ScreenTips will be displayed.

Note

If a descriptive text is not specified for a particular control or a ScreenTip’s UseHintAsHeader property is set to True, a hint message (see the control’s Hint property) will be shown instead.

The default value of the ShowDescription property is True.
