Where did the TGridCell.Hint property go?

I just checked EWB 2 and it wasn't public or published for the TGridCell class in EWB 2 either.  Did you, perhaps, add it yourself in the source ?

No.  I have made no changes to the library units.  Still works in EWB 2.  Much needed functionality in my application.

This is kind of curious actually.

In EWB2 i just tried and i can set a TGridCell hint value.

Either direct or in something like "OnCellUpdate" event.

Looking at the WebGrids unit the TGridCell declaration does not have a
hint property and is derived from TControl which also does not appear to
have it and yet EWB2 compiler allows it.

Anyways - not sure how this actually works in EWB2.

EWB3 compiler does report that hint is not a valid property.

Ahh, yes, now I realize what's going on.  It's the new class member scope visibility changes in the compiler.  I'll just need to make the Hint property public for the grid cell classes.  That will be available in build 4 today.
