Parameters
Name | Type | Description |
---|---|---|
owner | Form | An owner of the window. In a multi-monitor system, if the owner is set to null, the window will be displayed on the main monitor. Otherwise, the window will be displayed on the same monitor as the owner. |
caption | String | A string that specifies the window’s caption. |
text | String | A string that specifies the window’s text, displayed when the text region is not hovered over. |
Remarks
If the AlertControl.AllowHtmlText property is enabled, you can use HTML tags to format an alert window’s caption and text. See HTML Text Formatting to learn more.
You can handle the AlertControl.BeforeFormShow event to customize the newly created alert window before its appearance on-screen.
The following example demonstrates how to show and close alert windows:
using DevExpress.XtraBars.Alerter;
// Displays an alert window.
alertControl1.Show(this, "Alert", "The alert description.");
// Closes all active alert windows.
foreach(AlertForm alert in alertControl1.AlertFormList)
alert.Close();
// Closes the specified alert window.
AlertForm alertWindow = alertControl1.AlertFormList[0];
if(alertWindow != null)
alertWindow.Close();
