Components

TAnalogClock TAnalogClock is a visual component to display a standard analog clock. TAnalogClock can also be used as a timer by setting the Interval property and writing a handler for the OnTimer event.
TBalloonHint TBalloonHint is a non-visual component to display hint strings in a cartoon style balloon. Several properties are provided to customize the appearance of the balloon. The Shape property allows you to change between plain and rounded rectangles. ShadowDepth and ShadowStyle allow you to control the appearance of the drop shadow. The Style property allows you to configure the colors and font. The Operation property allows you to tailor the way the balloons are activated and displayed.
TBWCCCheckBox TBWCCCheckBox functions as a check box which looks like the ones found in BWCC.DLL.

TCustomHint TCustomHint is a replacement for the built in 'tool-tip' style hints. TCustomHint provides control over the font, color and maximum width of the hint window. To add custom hints to your application, simply place a TCustomHint control on your main form and set the Active property to True.
TDozer TDozer is used to put your program to 'sleep' for the time specified by DozeLength. TDozer will also generate OnTimer events (depending on the Interval setting) for the duration of the nap.
