Hi,

I just read the Bug Report 1649.  I saw the option in Lazarus for
"tooltip expression evaluation", but have know idea how this works?  I
have always tried it, as mentioned in the bug report, as that is how
it worked under Delphi/Kylix, but in never worked for me.

What is the "tooltip expression evaluation" in Lazarus, and how do you use it?

Example of what I tried:
-----------------------------------
begin
  i := ValueA + ValueB;
-----------------------------------

>From what I understood "tooltip expression evaluation" means, is that
if I put a breakpoint on line 2 and run the app.  When the program
breaks, I can hover the mouse over "x" or "ValueA" or "ValueB" and a
tooltip will appear with the value of that variable.

This is what I expected, but it has never worked under Linux or
Windows.  Maybe I am understanding this feature all wrong?  Any hints?

Regards,
  - Graeme -
