First of all I've gotta say that this control is awesome, thank you guys for delivering such useful stuff.

I'm wondering if there might be some way to replicate either javascript alert or radwindow radconfirm() functionality with this control, I mean, I want to block all background form until user click button inside the notification.

Any suggestions??

Kind regards.

Hello Alex,

Thank you for the nice words :)

As for blocking the screen - this is not the intended purpose of this control and I'm afraid it isn't possible. The closest you could get would be to have a notification that would require the user to close it manually (AutoCloseDelay="0" KeepOnMouseOver="true" ShowCloseButton="true" ) and attach a handler to the OnClientClose event or the button click.

Please note that this is outside of the scope of this control, yet If more requests for a modal functionality arrive for the RadNotification we will create a public PITS item and if many votes are accumulated we will consider implementing this functionality.

All the best,

Marin.

Thanks for your quick response, I thought you'd say that so I'm trying to implement desired behavior by other ways.

I hope in the days to come for more users to request such functionality as I think may be very helpful to create custom notifications, confirmations, etc.

Thanks again.


Greetings from Mexico.

Hi guys,

Thank you for your feedback. We have logged this feature and we will consider implementing it for a future release, but I am sorry to say that for the time being this is not in our plans.

What you can do is create a simple div element with the desired color and opacity, then change its CSS display property in the OnClientShow and OnClientHide events of the RadNotification. A simple example is attached. Please note that the height and padding styles applied to the html, body and form elements. Their purpose is to make sure that the 100% size of the div covers the entire screen.

This has also been added in the Knowledge base in the following link: http://www.telerik.com/support/kb/aspnet-ajax/notification/how-to-make-a-modal-radnotification.aspx.


Kind regards,

Hi,

This works really cool. 

I wish to use this as a confirmation dialog, is there a way to return values on which button is selected from the notification control?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,
Vijay

I accomplished that scenario by adding RadButtons to RadNotification Template, then I used OnButtonClicked Event and worked just fine.

Hope it helps.

Regards,

Alex

Thanks Alex, even I did the same.
But I wanted to confirm if there is any other better way to do so.

The sample mostly does the trick but the overlay div doesn't cover all of the content, it only extends the hieght of the browser client area.  So when the browser window is scrolled vertically the overlay doesn't cover the scrolled area (see attached image).  I've tried a number of css workarounds to try to fix this but nothing made much of a difference. 

Any suggestions?

Thanks--Steve

Nevermind.  Embarassingly, my problem was a typo in my css.  Working fine now.
