    I want to create a custom tooltip for my app that can contain an image and multiline capability. Is this possible?

    Thanks,

    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

    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:

    PopMenu

    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
