Hi,
We evaluate Q1 2009 Winforms controls with VS2008 SP1.
1) How to change RadMessageBox title font?
2) How to change RadMessageBox message font?
3) Does the RadMessageBox plays error / success sounds according to the MessageBoxIcon like the .Net MessageBox.Show ?
4) The documentation application that comes with the WinForms doesn't have an entry for RADmessagebox - where to find documentation?
5) Does the RADmessagebox support HTML? I tried <b> and </b> tags but they are shown.
6) The localization feature of the RADmessagebox buttons text is very nice :-)
Thank you!

Hi,
the HTML support feature is simple and a great idea, congratulations.
But..have limitations? example that not work:
RadMessageBox.Show(this, "<html>This is a <font size=4><b>bold text</b></font> \n");
something like that happend too with font family, colors, etc.
Anolther problem that i found:
If you use html syntax in the title section, works fine, but have a problem with "\n":
the problem is that buttons are no more visible because of successive use of "\n".

Hello Sayed,
Thank you for writing back.
The RadLabel in the RadMessageBox body has a TextWrap property set to true. If you set the property to false, the text will be displayed as in the caption:
Using the above approach, however, eliminates the text wrapping which might be inconvenient for many scenarios. The reason our HTML-rendering mechanism does not work with enabled TextWrap is purely
missing implementation. This is why I have added this behavior as a feature request to our Public Issue Tracker.
I hope you find this information useful. Let me know if you have further queries.

One more question, please ... How to set the RadMessageBox to be displayed as TopMost window?
0
Hello Sayed,
Thank for the question.
Currently RadMessageBox inherits this property from its owner and to achieve this you should set the TopMost property of the owner control:
However, if you don't want the owner of RadMessageBox to be top most as well, you should use RadMessageBoxForm instead of RadMessageBox. Here is a sample:
I hope it helps.

Just a question... What if its owner is a UserControl?

Hi Sayed,
Thank you for writing back.
The Show method of RadMessageBox is designed to accept owner from type IWin32Window. So every class that implements this interface can be owner of RadMessageBox. This interface is fundamental for every win forms type including UserControl. This mean that will not have any problems to use RadMessageBox with UserControl.
I hope this helps.

We kindly ask you to use just one support channel to contact us. Posting the same questions numerous times slows down our response time because we will need to review and address two or more tickets instead of one. Moreover threads are handled according to license and time of posting, so if it is an urgent problem, we suggest you use a support ticket, which would be handled before a forum thread.
Your question has already been answered in the forum thread: http://www.telerik.com/community/forums/winforms/forms-and-dialogs/radmessagebox-large-text-height-problem.aspx
Should you have any other questions, I will be glad to assist you

How do you center a line in RadMessageBox
I tried the following but it didn't work.
RadMessageBox.Show("<html><center><b>Disclaimer</b></center></html>");
RadMessageBox.Show("<html><div align=\"center\"><b>Disclaimer</b></div></html>");

Hello,
How can i change the size of RadMessageBox and its Buttons for all application Winforms?

Hello Pawan,
Thank you for writing.
RadMessageBox is auto-sized according to the text that is being displayed. Each time the RadMessageBox is shown, the MinimumSize is internally updated measuring the text. If you need to have a specific size for the window, feel free to use RadForm.
However, you can change the default size of the buttons by using the following code snippet:

In order to change the buttons' text, you can use a RadMessageLocalizationProvider http://docs.telerik.com/devtools/winforms/forms-and-dialogs/messagebox/localization
