TCustomTaskDialog.FooterText property

Member of TCustomTaskDialogpublicIn unit Dialogs

Text that is displayed in the footer area on the Task dialog.

Declaration

pascal
property FooterText: TTranslateString read FFooterText write FFooterText;

Description

FooterText is a TTranslateString property with the text displayed in the footer area on the Task dialog. Its value can be localized using the standard LCL translation facilities. It can contain multi-line text when line ending characters (#13,#10) are embedded in the String value. For example:

ADialog.FooterText := '(c) Copyright 1960-2021, Acme Corporation LLC.' + 
  #10 + 'All rights reserved.';

Or, the multi-line value can be entered in the object inspector using the property editor at design-time.

Text, ExpandedText, and FooterText allow an HTML-like hyperlinking capability using the <a href="">Link Text</a> notation. The feature must be enabled by including tfEnableHyperlinks in the Flags property. Use tfExpandFooterArea to position the expanded text in the footer area.

Multi-line property editors in the object inspector were enabled in Lazarus version 2.2.0.
