## Description

HotImages is a TCustomImageList property with icon images displayed on tool buttons when the mouse is hovered over the controls. Use Images for the images displayed when the tool button are enabled but not hovered. Use DisabledImages for the images displayed when tool buttons are not enabled.

The image position for a tool button is stored in the ImageIndex property in the TToolButton instance.This requires the image at a given position in the image lists to target the same button on the tool bar control.

The image list should contain images which uses the sames width and height, and appropriately sized for the ButtonWidth and ButtonHeight for the tool bar. Use ImagesWidth to specify the size needed for tool button icons independent of the actual image size stored in the image lists.

When a new image list is assigned to the property, the tool bar is redrawn.

The image lists are used when the tool buttons get the current icon drawn in the Paint method.
