Parameters
Parameters | Description |
ARect: TRect | The position of the balloon's stem point on the desktop |
const AHeader: WideString | The header for the balloon. |
const AHint: WideString | The hint message for the balloon. |
const VisibleTime: Integer = cJvBallonHintVisibleTimeDefault | The maximum time in milliseconds that the balloon is visible. |
const AIconKind: TJvIconKind = ikInformation | The icon to be displayed in the balloon. |
const AImageIndex: TImageIndex = -1 | Indicates which image to draw in the balloon from the image list Images. |
Description
Call ActivateHintRect to display the balloon window with its stem point at either the top or the bottom of the rectangle provided by the ARect parameter.
ActivateHintRect ensures that the balloon window appears entirely on screen.
After the component displays a balloon window, it automatically deactivates it after a time period
- specified by the VisibleTime parameter - has elapsed. Set VisibleTime to 0 to disable theautomatic deactivation.
To hide a balloon window that is activated directly by calling ActivateHint, ActivateHintPos and ActivateHintRect, use the CancelHint method.
Use Options to specify that the component must use default values as specified by DefaultHeader, DefaultImageIndex and DefaultIcon, instead of the values of the parameters that may be given.
