How to display a tooltip or tooltip similar to the description for the Delphi XE tooltip code

Question

I am looking for a desire to implement a tooltip similar to how Delphi XE does when you debug and you hover over an object. those. a help window opens with + signs that you can expand, etc.

I'm trying to create a tooltip that shows a list of items (for example) when you hover over a control (like a button) that allows the user to click on the item, and then I can do something based on the item they selected.

Are there any components that can do this? Or is it better for me to simply create a borderless form and handle showing / hiding myself with mouse events?

thanks

I know there are tooltip components with built-in html . That way you can have some kind of html treeview inside the tooltip! I think this solution is for you.

• HTMLHint from TMS software
• THINTBox from Cramon Utilities (free!)
