In this post, you’ll learn more about HintHidePause or DelphiVCL.Application.HintHidePause property is used to specify the time interval to wait before hiding the Help Hint if the mouse has not moved from the control or menu item. Use HintHidePause to specify a wait time in milliseconds. The default value is 2500 milliseconds (or 2 1/2seconds), which is set in the constructor. The Help Hint for the control or menu item is specified in the Hint property.

Note: The default HintHidePause value is several times longer than HintPause.
