Understanding DelphiVCL.Application.CancelHint

The CancelHint method or DelphiVCL.Application.CancelHint is used to cancel the display of a hint for a control.

Applications rarely, if ever, call CancelHint directly. CancelHint is used internally to cancel the display of hints at appropriate times, such as when a window is not valid or when the application closes. CancelHint calls a series of routines that clean up the display and timing issues of the hint window for a control.
