RadDesktopAlert - OptionsButton

[Ramius]

Hello,

i have looked at the RadDesktopAlert - First Look Demo.

When i click on the OptionButton of a RadDesktopAlert then there are no options available.

Will it be possible to add a button to a RadDesktopAlert so that the user can click on that button and then a dialog of the application will be opended ? 

Kind Regards,

Ramius

Hello Ramius,

Thank you for contacting us and for your questions.

There are two approaches you can use to customize the content of the RadDesktopAlert by adding custom buttons. The first option is to use the OptionItems collection which displays menu items in a drop-down which is shown when clicking on the OptionsButton. Here is a code snippet that demonstrates how to add option items:

RadMenuItem optionItem = new RadMenuItem();
optionItem.Text = "Open Document";
optionItem.Click += new EventHandler(optionItem_Click);
this.radDesktopAlert1.OptionItems.Add(optionItem);

The other option is to use the ButtonItems collection which displays a strip of buttons at the bottom part of the alert. Here is a code snippet that demonstrates how to add buttons:

RadButtonElement buttonElement = new RadButtonElement("Alert Custom Button");
buttonElement.Click += new EventHandler(buttonElement_Click);
this.radDesktopAlert1.ButtonItems.Add(buttonElement);

I hope this helps.
