Updated on Aug 27, 2026
The taskbar button supports flashing functionality which is suitable for demanding immediate attention of the user.

RadTaskbarButtons offers public methods for controlling the flashing:
| Method | Description |
|---|---|
| Flash(int count = int.MaxValue, int timeout = 0) | Flashes the form. It does not change the active state of the window. |
| FlashUntilActive(int count = int.MaxValue, int timeout = 0) | Flashes the specified window until it is activated. Note that if the window is currently active the flash will not begin. |
| StopFlash() | Stops the flashing of the form. |
