what about a new form with FormStyle := fsSystemStayOnTop ?!

Hi,
I'm using Lazarus 1.8.4 on Win10. In my application I have a Form with
2 functions. (1) Is to download files from an internet server using
ftp, (2) is to store the data from those files in the datacollection.
Sometimes I loose my internet connection and in that case I want to
show a warning in the the middle of the form and in front of all the
other components. For the warning I use a TLabel component for the
layout parameter tlCenter. But the label is partly hidden behind
another component (TFileListBox) and BringToFront doesn't help.
Now I tried a TStaticText component and that works just fine. Except
that it has no Layout property and no Paint procedure I could override.
Is there a component that gives me all the behaviour I want? Is there
a way to bring the TLabel realy in front of all other components? Is
there a way to vertical align the text of a TStaticText caption?
Thx for your reactions
