hello i have a small problem here

on my program i have a listview, and when the text is too long to show, a hint will be displayed with the complete text when i hover the mouse on the text, it work only if i set the form to be fsNormal, if i set my form to be fsStayOnTop my hint with show just part of the text. very hard to explain in word so i put a screenshot here so you guys can se whan i ment


i'm using delphi 7.0 and i wonder if it could be fixed so the hint with show up correctly even if you have the form to fsStayOnTop

TIA
 
Tjena...

It seems like the problem only occur the first time when the TListview isn't focused. After you have clicked the TListview, the hint text is applied above the form like it should.

I would say this is one of few Delphi bugs... :)

But why do you have to use fStayontop? Why not use ShowModal instead...

There is always another way to solve it, but I prefer my way.
