##About

Gets or sets the collection of key-value pairs where the key is the tab name and the value is a hint that will be shown when mouse is over the appropriate tab. 
Can be seen in the ReportDesigner if ShowSideHelp is enabled.

Note: You can also enable/disable side help by clicking the Help button ([[AdHocSettings.ShowHelpButton|http://wiki.izenda.com/API/CodeSamples/ShowHelpButton]] should be enabled).
