the colour is one of the settings in the desktop properties appearance.
("Tooltip Color")
by default the timer settings for tooltips are calculated relative
to the system double click time settings as
initial := GetDoubleClickTime();
autopop := GetDoubleClickTime() * 10;
reshow := GetDoubleClickTime() / 5;
these settings can be overridden for a particular tooltip control
by sending it a TTM_SETDELAYTIME message.
The last time I looked at this ISTR Delphi used it's own hint handling
mechanism internally so these "tooltip" settings might be completely
independent of the Delphi "hints".
