    11 <p>Information pop-up notes are used to provide additional information to

    12 the user, most typically regarding a focused item. Although the Information

    13 pop-up can be used in various applications and components, it should not be

    14 used too frequently as constantly appearing and disappearing notes may disturb

    15 smooth user experience.</p>

    16 <p>The Information pop-up does not have focus, its content cannot be scrolled,

    17 and the control always remains in the main pane. The maximum number of rows

    18 in the Information pop-up is four. In a typical case, the pop-up emerges one

    19 second after the user has taken the focus on an item but has not made any

    20 further actions. The pop-up is timed so that it (typically) remains visible

    21 for ten seconds or until some event interrupts it. Timeouts are application-specific

    22 and variation is possible.</p>
