ToolTip like info item

Hi again :)

In the rulers example found in AppKit examples, I have noticed that
NSRulerView displays some kind of tooltip to show units when the markers are
moved.

I would like to have the same kind of items in my view (just a standard
NSView though). I thought about using tooltips but they don't fit my needs
because of their delay. Indeed, I need this item to be here all the time and
to be dynamically updated, showing the cursor x, y position.

This is a bit like in the Grab app but with a tooltip look and feel (shadow
included). Is such an item available in cocoa or will I have to implement
something approaching ?

If so, what do you think would be the best way to go ?

Thank you for any hints,

Bertrand Mansion
