Also, bold/italics text would be nice too. :)
yes
use a form as the tooltip box
put your info and pictures on that little form
and make it visible on mousemove ect

Use those ideas / code..
I like Kovan's Idea! A form would be perfect !
i you use form,put nothing for your caption,
so their will be no title bar!!
forms are my solution to everything :)
msgboxes, tooltips, cool ass apps
everything
now to make it NIFTY
make the forms transparent (or shape them any way you want)
there is a trillion threads on how ot do this on this forum)
even popup menu's i use forms instead of stupid ms crap
(o wait they are still ms crap, well they are enhanced ms crap)
kovan, I'd like to see any examples that you have of making menus out of forms.
Also, there was an excellent tooltip class that had exactly what I was looking for here:

For a popmenu just make the form appear right where you right click the mouse. the you mouse can go onto the new form and select item/button/pic/object etc!
it's a very cool idea
