I enabled a hint in TSimpleGraph.
When I move the cursor to the component and when I wait
a moment it appears as usual (but with soft shadow).
When I wait until timeout is reached it disappear completly
inlusive the shadow.

But when I do not wait and move the cursor off the component
the hint disappear but not it's shadow. I can even move the app
under the shadow. It even display over the desktop background.

I guess you have to look for the problem in your hint component.

Hmm, I do not use any special hint-component, only delphi 7 pro.
A standard-button beside the TSimpleGraph show the same hint but
without leaving shadows onscreen.

Will further test.

I installed the package on Delphi 5 and recompiled it there.
Then I compiled my plugin under Delphi 5 and got no more shadows.

Since my plugin is targeted to a non-delphi7 compiled host-application
this may be the source of the problem. Now all hints looks equal.
:wink:
