Balloons

I am trying to get the Balloons working on an AdvString grid but noting happens
I used the below code form the documentation but nothing happens is there any settings that I nee to change?
AdvStringGrid1.Balloon.Enable := true;
AdvStringGrid1.AddBalloon(2,2,'Title A','Cell 2,2 is here', biError);
AdvStringGrid1.AddBalloon(3,3,'Title B','Cell 3,3 is here', biWarning);

What operating system do you use?
What Delphi version?
Component version?

Operating system Windows 11
Delphi 11.2
how do I find the component verson?

Component version might be 22.0 but im not sure about that

Component version is in the Object Inspector -> Version

New app, default grid on form and code added:

Thanks for you help mine is still not working probably to do something with the settings.
procedure Tfrmor003.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
inherited;
AdvStringGrid1.Balloon.Enable := true;
AdvStringGrid1.AddBalloon(2,2,'Title A','Cell 2,2 is here', biError);
AdvStringGrid1.AddBalloon(3,3,'Title B','Cell 3,3 is here', biWarning);
end;
version no: 8.7.1.3

I suggest to first check the latest version v9.0.0.9

Thank You I will try

I have updated to the latest version and the issue is still there however the route cause is using a custom manifest file


When changed to auto generate it works. Same thing happens with the advance pdf viewer Is there anyway around this? Its all the controls that uses native Windows APIs don't seems to work when custom is selected.

Manifest needs to instruct to use ComCtrls v6, this is the version that has the balloons

Thanks that worked for the addballoon
