Similar function in Lazarus as ShowMessage, but with delay not "OK" button.
jinx:
Hello, I'm building a small app in lazarus in which I need a function/procedure similar to ShowMessage, but instead of give me "OK", it will exit itself in a certain amount of time (some delay variable).
Also, is there a function/procedure similar to what kdialog dose:
--- Code: ---kdialog --passivepopup "Test ..."
--- End code ---
P.S. Im building this for KDE, if it helps...

There's none ATM. You need to create a form with TTimer and show it as modal form.

Ok, how?! A form I can create, add a timer to it also, but the rest not really!
typo:
You could not use a Timer or ShowModal, simply set you FormStyle to fsSystemStayOnTop and call it like this:
--- Code: --- FormMessage.Show;
Application.ProcessMessages;
Sleep(1000);
FormMessage.Hide;
--- End code ---
jinx:
I need something that modifies, I mean the message in it. Like calling a function:
ShowMessage('I need help! :)', 1000);
1000 would be the time out, lets say.
