@ CookieRevised: I've made a similar implementation of your script, yet I've got a problem with it. It works fine until the window is deactivated. When the window is activated again, it works for controls within the parent window, but not for controls in a child window.

You probably need to subclass that child window because it is this child window which is the parent for the control on it.

small additional note: it might be possible that using WM_CTLCOLORBTN wont work anymore in the future though. Because this greatly depends on how Plus! paints its stuff. So, if that changes (eg: in version 5, dunno), this whole method might not work either.

Oh, and this is only tested on a button control. Other controls might not work.

I've added the message notification stuff to the child window as well, but that doesn't make any difference.

There's a slight delay between the mouse entering the button's client area and the actual showing of the StaticControl. However, it doesn't work every time. I don't really know how to reproduce the error, other than just bringing another window to the foreground.
