Like Anthony already found out, even if it's white on screen it really is a very
light shade of yellow. You can see this by adjusting the brightness of your
screen but with a laptop that's a bit more difficult. I've seen multiple times,
especially with laptops, that you can't see these subtle colors. (For me, with a
desktop-screen, the difference is really visible)

i'll have to try one of the other systems that still has a crt... most every system here has a flatscreen display... i think they're all lcd, too...

If you don't want to change your theme you can change it in the source of
Lazarus itself. But your other programs will keep a white hint. I don't know how
to make a clearer border but the color is here:
Lazarus_dir\LCL\Include\hintwindow.inc

// Color := clInfoBk;
Color := clYellow; // <- for instance

But clInfoBk is used a lot more throughout the Lazarus IDE so it might be better
to change your theme. Maybe somebody else could hunt down the border-drawing for
this tooltip (which i couldn't find off hand).

i've changed the theme for now but yes, it would really be nice if someone would fix the border so it is grey or black or such... perhaps it might be a good thing to add these color settings to the options->colors area, too?

eg: tool tip border     : #000000
    tool tip background : light grey

or how ever they are specified... it is much too deep in the innards of lazarus for me to even think about looking for... especially with my ancient TP/BP procedural thought process methodology ;)
