[Lazarus] debug hint timing [[Re: TButton resizing is broken in Trunk's form designer]]

[Martin]

No need for recompilng with the extra symbols, that I specified.

It isn;'t the debugger.

See my other mail.

Any hint in gtk2, that consists of a single very long line (that needs 
to be wrapped)  has the same slowness

using html hints fixes that, but crashes elsewhere

In the first you evaluate Sender and Listbox1

In the 2nd you only evaluate Listbox1

only the 2nd has

The check if listbox1 needs typecasting => it doesn't need, it is 
already declared the same as it actually is.

So yes the files have little difference. Had you done Sender again, 
there might have been a diff.

you are right, there seems some problem there.... it should

No, but in your example it is hard to see
