How to display tooltip or hint similar to Delphi XE tooltip code insight

I'm looking at wanting to implement a tooltip similar to the way Delphi XE does when you're debugging and you hover over an object. ie, it opens up a hint window with + signs which you can expand etc.

I'm trying to create a hint开发者_如何学C window which will show a list of items (for example) when hovering over a control (such as a button) which will let the user click on an item and I can then do something based on the item they've selected.

Are there any components out there that might do that already? Or am I better of just creating a borderless form and handle the showing/hiding myself with mouse events?

Thanks

I know there are hint components with embedded html. So you can have a kind of html treeview inside you hint!
I think it is a solution for you.

• HTMLHint from TMS Software
• THintBox from Cramon Utilities (freeware!)
