TCustomHintWindow Class

Custom window to specify properties to allow painting hints.

Pascal
TCustomHintWindow = class(TCustomControl);
C++
class TCustomHintWindow : public TCustomControl;

TCustomHintWindow is a custom window class that specifies the correct properties for painting hints. Basically, it is a layered window that allows alpha blending and invisible pixels. This allows painting a window as a floating balloon for a balloon hint, for instance. TCustomHint uses TCustomHintWindow to paint and size hints. 

You don't need to use this class unless you are creating new types of custom hints.
