What is a long/short hint ?
When you set the hint property of a component, you can create it in
two parts :
The short part|The part that can be longer
If you set the ShowHint property to TRUE, your application will show
a tooltip with the short (first) part of the hint only and you can
catch the hint in the TApplication.OnHint or TApplication.OnShowHint
and using GetLongHint show a longer message in the Statusbar for
instance
