Use a tsimpleform with optionswindow = [wo_tooltip]. Use a ttimer, in
ontimer do:
"
procedure ttooltipfo.timerev(const sender: TObject);
begin
release();
end;
"
in onmouseeevent do:
"
procedure ttooltipfo.mouseev(const sender: twidget;
var ainfo: mouseeventinfoty);
begin
if ainfo.eventkind = ek_buttonpress then begin
release();
end;
end;

It could be done with a tanimtimer and a tanimitemcomp and updating the
window property _NET_WM_WINDOW_OPACITY if the window manager supports it.

That can be done with a tstatfile.
