Namespace: DevExpress.XtraEditors

Assembly: DevExpress.XtraEditors.v24.1.dll

NuGet Package: DevExpress.Win.Navigation

Declaration

public static DialogResult Show(
    XtraDialogArgs args
)

Parameters

Name Type Description
args XtraDialogArgs

An XtraDialogArgs object that allows you to dynamically customize the displayed dialog.

Returns

Type Description
DialogResult

A DialogResult enumerator value that specifies what dialog button an end-user has clicked.

Remarks

You can handle the Showing event for the args parameter to dynamically customize the dialog content and buttons. The code below illustrates an example.

XtraDialogArgs args = new XtraDialogArgs();
args.Showing += Args_Showing;
args.Caption = "Default Text";
args.Buttons = new DialogResult[] { DialogResult.OK, DialogResult.Cancel };
XtraDialog.Show(args);

//...
private void Args_Showing(object sender, XtraMessageShowingArgs e) {
    e.MessageBoxForm.Text = "Custom Text";
    e.Buttons[DialogResult.OK].Text = "Yes";
    e.Buttons[DialogResult.Cancel].Text = "No";
}

As a result, the displayed dialog will have content and button captions that differ from those that were initially set.
