Ed,
As I said, I don't know a build in feature, however to let it go to the side
of the form when some time is gone, would probably not be my biggest
chalenge, as I wrote.
Just enable a timer and set the ticks when there is a mouse leave and set it
to false at a mouse enter would be my way to try and when the time is over,
hide the control and show a vertical coloured label in the corner of the
form (where the left side is the most easy one). And when on that label is a
mouse enter, hide that and show the calandar again.
When you want it with a pin I think you have to do the drawing yourself and
check at a mouse down where the mouse is in the control, than it becomes of
course a lot more difficult.
However just an idea, never tried

Cor,
Thanks for the response, but either you are WAY above my head here, or we
are not on the same page.
Within my app, I want to have a user calendar. I thought it would be cool
if that were to be docked to the side and the user could keep it hidden,
showing it when they mouse over, or "flipping the thumb tack" and keeping
it
visible.

EdB,
In my opinion can this not be difficult (without maybe the smooth flow)
when
you use a timer.
However I never saw an automatic timerproperty in a control itself.
I hope this helps?
