What kind of a popup window? A message box? :confused:

Why not use the banner plugin?

A popup window, not a message box. Banner plugin is a good idea Joel, thanks a lot :) I hope I can customize it to my needs.

Unfortunately banner plugin can't do what I need, because I want to place the popup window near taskbar with additional controls and initially hidden. The new animate plugin from Takhir is a good alternative, but I don't know if a syslink control could be added using system plugin, and I think it will lack callback and there will be no transparent background. If I could use nsDialogs to create a popup window and its controls I could handle callbacks and the custom controls could have transparent background.

Or you can create your own plugin...no?

I cannot provide a tutorial, but sample code can be found here:

Also you might look at the code of my NSISList plugin, for a more complex example:

Many more NSIS plugins are available as source code...
