    You can. Take a look at the odcReg* commands.

    You can define a custom SKILL extension to specify your own information to be displayed in the Info Balloon box. The information you specify appears below a dashed line in the info balloon box.

    The SKILL extension must be defined at the object level. Global levels (VLS, Objects, and Shapes) are not supported. Also, the application must be specified for each SKILL function.

    For example,
    odcRegShapeRect("Layout-XL" "test custom SKILL function")

    To turn the display of the SKILL extension on, click the Custom SKILL Function button on the Setup tab of the Dynamic Display form for the object specified in the SKILL function.

    Here is an example that will print a custom via's override parameters to the info balloon in L and XL:
    procedure(myv(obj @optional (x nil)) sprintf(nil "%L" obj~>viaHeader~>overrideParams))
    odcRegVia("Layout" "myv")
    odcRegVia("Layout-XL" "myv")
