Hi, I was wondering what the best way would be to implement a pane, containing various widgets, as a popup (but without window decorations) which would be shown when a relevent tab is pressed. It would disappear when the mouse is moved off it, and could be "torn" off like a menu to form a permanent dialog. The nearest example I can find for this is from Photoshop Elements - see this link for a screenshot:

Would a GtkMenu be the best solution for the popup, and if so, how would I position it so that it aligned correctly with the tab? I think that such a widget would save space, whilst still allowing easy access to (eg) tool options, if used correctly. If anyone has a suggestion for something else already present in GTK that would be better suited to this purpose, I'm open to suggestions too :o) I'm not too keen on forcing people to traverse menus in this particular instance.
