* Lazarus/FPC Version: v3.99 (and possibly prior versions as well) <!-- (Copy from Menu -> Help -> About Lazarus -> Button "Copy version information to clipboard") --> * Operating System: Windows 7 SP1 * CPU / Bitness: 64 bit <!-- (64 or 32 Bit?) --> ## What happens the hint window does not always use the yellow TurboPowerIPro color ## What did you expect all the hints to appear in one color instead of sometimes in yellow and sometimes in grey. ## Steps to reproduce One occasion (there are more) that causes the window to be grey instead of yellow is when the field or variable name hovered upon starts with the "&" character. Therefore, to reproduce, declare a variable whose name starts with an "&" then hover over it to see it value while debugging the program.
