The hint is set in unit ide/ComponentPalette, line 744 in Lazarus trunk. I don't have details for getting the FPDoc info but you can study the code yourself. It is used for example in the Object Inspector's Information Box below the properties. I don't think the feature requires much code once you have figured out where to get the needed data. This is typical in a big project. A commit with only few lines of code has required many hours of studying the existing code. May the source be with you! :) Juha _______________________________________________ fpc-pascal maillist - fpc-pascal@lists.freepascal.org http://lists.freepascal.org/mailman/listinfo/fpc-pascal
