Well, here is the pro way:
Insert>Object>Script
In the script, write: h.text "Your Text Here"
Been a long time, IDK if that even works.

@theopfor; Roblox repeatedly annoys me when there is no way to insert a hint without a script.

make ure that you click workspace before inserting the hint otherwise it'll probably be lost forever. also don't confuse hints and messages, messages are annoying to the max, the fill the screen and have text in your way. It's an oversized screen gui

"h=Instance.new("Hint",workspace)
h.Text="text""

For your global knowledge young padawan,you can do:

h = Instance.new("Hint",workspace).Text = "inserttexthere"

h = Instance.new("Hint",workspace).Text = "Insert text here" -- Errors

Instance.new("Hint",Workspace).Text = "Insert text here" -- Works

pcall(function() h = Instance.new("Hint",workspace).Text = "Insert text here" end) -- Doesn't break the script, but won't make the hint >_>

YOU MUST USE A SCRIPT TO INSERT A FREAKIN' HINT!

:P Like how this turned from something real simple to a script comparison...
