Thanks,
I found it as a property of the form on which the buttons are placed.
So not a project option.
Now working!

[Lazarus] Hints not working - what is wrong?

2019-05-19 Thread Bo Berglund via lazarus
32 bit Lazarus 2.0.0, Fpc 3.0.4 on Windows 7 x64

I have tried in vain to make hints show up in the GUI of my
application.
I have set the hint strings for TButton, TBitBtn and TSpeedButton
items via Object Inspector in the Lazarus IDE but nothing displays
when I hover the mouse ove these items when running the program.

What am I missing?

Do I need to set some project property to make them appear?
In Delphi simply entering the strings used to cause them to appear in
runtime when the mouse hovers over the controls

[Lazarus] Displaying additional chm help files in the IDE for other packages

2019-05-19 Thread Werner Pamler via lazarus
Motivated by Don Siders' updates to lcl xml help files I began to add to 
the help files for TAChart, too. The new hints do show up in the code 
editor, and now I am able also to build the chm file from the xml files 
using fpdoc. But I cannot convince the IDE to display the help files 
when F1 (or Ctrl+F1 in classic keyboard mode) is pressed. I thought I'd 
have to register the new help file somehow in "Tools" > "Options" > 
"Help Options" > "Databases", but there's nothing to add a new package.


Any help would be appreciated.

[Lazarus] CHM doc snapshot (FPC 3.2, Lazarus trunk branches)

2019-05-19 Thread Marco van de Voort via lazarus

Hello,

I worked a bit on the chm package, and as a test I regenerated the CHMs 
as a test. So why not release for alpha testing?


This contains both FPC 3.2 branch and Lazarus trunk (lcl,lazutils)  
CHMs, interlinked.


Please test, and let me know any anomalies.

http://www.stack.nl/~marcov/doc-chm3.2.0alpha.zip (24MB)

Greetings

Marco

P.s. the patch is not committed yet, needs some cleaning
