It is not possible to link the location of that small window to the underlying window in Windows, there is no setting, method or registry hack in Windows to do that, it is only possible to do that if you have programmed that small window yourself.
Attach window to another one
Hi,
I'd need a small window on top of a big one to follow its movements, covering always the same portion.
Thanks a lot

I should give this post a better title: 'Attach window on top of another one'
I have a little program, to blank portions of the screen, and I use it to cover zones of other programs that annoy me, e.g. timers
I'd like the little blank space program to follow the one it's covering if this gets moved
Hope I've been clear...
