Remarks
If the ShowToolTips property is set to Default or False, hints are not displayed. Set this property to True to display hints for tab form pages. A hint is displayed when a tab is hovered over with the mouse pointer. See the figure below.
By default, hints contain page captions specified using the TabFormPage.Text property. This may be useful if a caption is not visible in its entirety within a tab, as in the figure above. However, you can specify a custom SuperToolTip for a tab form page using the TabFormPage.SuperTip property.
By default, tooltips are controlled by the default ToolTipController accessible using the DefaultToolTipController component. You can provide a custom controller for tab form page hints using the TabFormControlBase.ToolTipController property. See Hints and Tooltips for details.
