Hard to be specific as you don't say whether you are using .NET, MFC or the Windows Api.
You need to modify the Visibility style of the control to make it disappear/reappear. To make it temporary you will have to manage the delay yourself.
.Make control invisible
.Start timer
.Handle timeout event - make control visible
There is no single command to update the style temporarily.
