Hello everyone,
I’m just learning Xojo and I think it’s incredible.
I’m creating a form and I want to show the HINT for the Text field, but my hint is a little longer than the space provided. I’m wondering if I can make the HINT text smaller somehow?
Any help would be appreciated it.
Thank you much.
Reformulate the help using less words / smaller wrds 
?
Or… Use a smaller Text Size (12 or 11 instead of 13) ?
Use a PopOver ?
Telling how you display the hint and eventually your Target OS may help to help you.
Thank you.
I change the Text size to 10 and it also affected the size of the Hint Text. I was wondering if there was a way to change the size of the HINT text independent of the size of the regular TEXT.
As for Target OS, Windows and iOS standalone applications if that helps.
For now, I’ll keep it at size 10, but if there is a way to have Text be 12 and Hint be 10, that would be best. Thanks for your help. 
Sorry Luis, Hint is an API2 feature I do not saw previously. You have to know from LR:
On Windows and Linux, the Hint only appears when the TextField does not have focus.
Also: I used that feature (in API 1), but removed it because of XPlatform troubles. Then I added a Label at WIndow’s bottom and place there the “online sensitive help” (something like: On mouseOver display this help text…) and I am happy with it.
I also added an (i) Canvas to show a window with “this window specific help”.
Depends on the size of needed help
Thank you so much. I really appreciate your help.
Thank you very much. I will take a look.
