Hi,
Is it possible to popup your own customized Dialog?
Hello,
Could you please clarify what exactly do you mean by 'customized dialog'? I will be happy to assist you further on that matter.
The window shown in ultraDesktopAlert is built in. User can only set the message in it. What i need to customize that window so that i can add controls in it. Or in other words if i create my own window with my own customized controls in it, can i popup my window in the same way ultraDesktopAlert window shows?
Please do let me know if you get my point else wise i will prepare a simple demo project for you.
Thanks.
A possible approach to achieve this might be by using a 'CreationFilter'.
You could read about it at the following link: http://help.infragistics.com/Help/NetAdvantage/WinForms/2012.1/CLR2.0/html/Win_Creation_Filter.html. Here are some topics from our community which could also help you: http://community.infragistics.com/forums/t/34485.aspx, http://forums.infragistics.com/forums/t/47561.aspx http://community.infragistics.com/forums/t/58186.aspx, http://community.infragistics.com/forums/t/9989.aspx and http://community.infragistics.com/forums/t/50234.aspx. The above approach is not so recommended, because it features element's resizing, creating or removing and could lead to some unexpected behaviors.
I created a sample for you to demonstrate what I mean. Please take a look at it.
If you are not satisfied I could log a new product idea for you, if you want.
Please do not hesitate to ask if something comes up.
I am checking about the progress of this issue. Please let me know If you need any further assistance on this.
I want to show desktop alerts in messenger style. Which UI element should i use?
Thanks, this solve the issue.
If you mean that you do not see the button, I think this is because the window is now smaller so you should also move your button, like this:
buttonUI.Rect = new Rectangle(100, 10, 100, 20);
Please try that out and let me know of the result.
I have tried the same with your code, but the newly inserted elements does't show. Do i have to do some thing else with the code?
This could be achieved through the following code:
ultraDesktopAlert1.Style = DesktopAlertStyle.WindowsLiveMessenger;
right?
So I tried it and it works fine with my CreationFilter implementation. You could try it in my sample and let me know if it meets your requirements.
Please check the image in attachment. I want to customized this message window.
