Status for the emulated TextHint in the control.

## Declaration

Source position: stdctrls.pp line 434

`public property TCustomComboBox.EmulatedTextHintStatus : TEmulatedTextHintStatus read FEmulatedTextHintStatus;`

## Description

EmulatedTextHintStatus is a read-only TEmulatedTextHintStatus property which contains the status value for an emulated TextHint display in the control. EmulatedTextHintStatus is used when a value has been assigned to the TextHint property and the widgetset does not natively implement the capability. The LCL emulates the TextHint display by assigning the value in TextHint to the Text for the control.

EmulatedTextHintStatus is updated in the private ShowEmulatedTextHint and HideEmulatedTextHint methods.
