TCustomMemo.CanShowEmulatedTextHint function

Declaration

function CanShowEmulatedTextHint: Boolean; override

Function result

Description

CanShowEmulatedTextHint is an overridden Boolean function in TCustomMemo, and does not call the inherited method in its implementation.

CanShowEmulatedTextHint determines whether an emulated TextHint can be displayed for the control. Normally, this requires a control handle and an unassigned value in the control text. In addition, some widgetsets implement text hints natively, and do not require LCL to emulate the capability (Windows, QT5, QT6). Emulated hint displays can also be suppressed when the widgetset class is being freed (when the Lines in the control have already been destroyed).

The current implementation always returns False for Memo controls.
