In this post, you’ll learn more about the HintPause or DelphiVCL.Application.HintPause property is used to specify the time interval that passes before the control’s Help Hint appears when the user places the mouse pointer on a control or menu item.
Use HintPause to change the default pause time of 500 milliseconds (or 1/2second) that is set in the constructor. When assigning a value to HintPause, specify the interval in milliseconds. The Help Hint displayed at the end of the pause is specified in the Hint property.
Learning more about the HintPause method will help you build python applications with Delphi VCL Applications using Python Development Tools.
