I have a form that I use to show some information for some seconds. Is it ok for the form to free itself? Can I start a timer in the constructor, and then call self.free in the timer-event? Or will this potentially lead to trouble?

In addition, with a form you can call
Release.It sends a CM_RELEASE message to the form. As a reaction it calls Free. The advantage of release is that there are no messages left for the form which could result in a crash.
