It seems that OnGetCellHint does not work in TMSFNCDataGrid

FNC TMS FNC UI Pack

Hi, I am using a TMSFNCDataGrid and I have set ShowHints to True on the Grid. But I got no hints if I move over the cells.

I use the OnGetCellHint event
procedure TMain.Grid1GetCellHint(Sender: TObject; ACell: TMSFNCDataGridCellCoord; var AHint: string);
begin
AHint:='Test';
end;

Also I was not able to use CustomHints, I do not have any Hint component on the Palette. Is there any example how to use Hints on that grid?

Thanks and best regards
Michael

Hi Pieter, thanks for the answer, but I have already the latest version 6.3.1.3 of the UI Pack and 4.0.3.5 of the FNC Core. Any other ideas? Are there any infromation or examples about for any or some On.... Events for the TMSFNCGrid? It seem it is not well known descriped (or I do not found it), thanks!
Best regards

Is this VCL you are using? Basically it's just

procedure TForm4.FormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
  TMSFNCDataGrid1.ShowHint := True;
end;

procedure TForm4.TMSFNCDataGrid1GetCellHint(Sender: TObject;
  ACell: TTMSFNCDataGridCellCoord; var AHint: string);
begin
  AHint := ACell.ToString;
end;

and this should produce a hint at cell level. Maybe you can provide a test sample?

Yes, thanks for the example. But does not work here. For a test I have created a new form.

procedure TForm1.TMSFNCDataGrid1GetCellHint(Sender: TObject;
ACell: TTMSFNCDataGridCellCoord; var AHint: string);
begin
AHint := ACell.ToString;
end;

procedure TForm1.WebFormCreate(Sender: TObject);
begin
TMSFNCDataGrid1.ShowHint:=True;
TMSFNCDataGrid1.Cells[2,2]:='Hello TMS';
end;

Please attach a compiled sample so we can open, run and test it here. Perhaps there is a conflict at project settings, or you are not compiling with the latest version, that could happen when there are multiple library paths in the IDE pointing to the same source code.

I have the same problem with version 1.2.0.7 of TMSFNCDataGrid in a vcl project. I can see no later version in tms subscription manager. (tms fnc ui pack 6.3.1.3)
I have showhint=true and parentcustomhint=false and parentshowhint=false
The event does not fire and I have also no hints for existing cell contents.
Concerning the CustomHint, only the BallonHint can be assigned.

We'll release an update thursday with the latest changes. If the problem is not fixed, let me know.
