Sounds good John.
If it's what I think you're talking about, they're often known as
toast windows (i.e. popping up as if out of a toaster).
The JVCL library (http://jvcl.sourceforge.net) has a similar component
in it already which we use.
But yeah, as you say, it's a nice effect for

It only did what I wanted it to do as I use it in my QC Plus
application. I don't think the latest version is available for
download (I basically threw out the pinnable caption idea).
It also supports windows themes.
Here is the code.
Notes:
1 - I looked at Jeremy's example quickly (to see what he did better than me
of course!) - this example is a lot simpler as it does not create and use
its own form, you pass it a form to which it applies these effects. In fact
you could use the same routine for several
