Created with Microsoft Visual Basic 2008 Express Edition and Krypton Toolkit 4.1.6 using the new KryptonWrapLabel.

Included in the zip-file is the class library and a test-application.

I hope you will like it and as usual, feedback and improvements are welcome.

Best regards

Looks great but the screenshot doesn't do it justice. I would urge fellow users to download and try it!

Thanks for sharing!

Hello,

I'm not very experienced in .net, I wonder How to use this component, i.e : how to integrate it in my project after dowloading the ZIP file ?
I'va another question, for this messagebox : is the size of the message is limited ? the size of the component is extensible according to the size of the message to display ?

Thanks

Hello etud_ini,

the ZIP file contains the complete project to modify and compile it by yourself.

If you just want to use it, use the attached DLL file and add it as reference to your project.

ComponentFactory.Krypton.ToolkitEx.zip

(44.23 KiB) Downloaded 195 times

After that you have to add the reference to the Imports and use it like the "normal" messagebox.

Code: Select all

Imports ComponentFactory.Krypton.ToolkitEx

Code: Select all

KryptonMessageBox.Show(message,caption)

The size of the messagebox depends on the displayed message and buttons and has a maximum width of approx. 360 pixel.

Kind regards

Hi dagikris

I have tried using your Customised KryptonMessageBox and it is great!
However, since I upgraded to KryptonSuite 4.3.0.0 I am getting error messages like KryptonMessageBox is Ambiguous in ComponentFactory,Krypton.Toolkit
(I haven't usedthe DLL, i incorporated your project within my solution - but haven't made any changes to your code except changed the reference of toolkit to 4.3.0.0 in your project references)

Any ideas why this may be?

Any help will be appreciated

Thanks

Jan

Hi jan,

i had the same problem after upgrading to KryptonSuite 4.3.0.0.

The problem is, that the new KryptonSuite has a new control, the KryptonMessageBox.

It's just a naming conflict.

The solution is to rename the class in my project to KryptonMessageBoxEx and if you want,
also the classes KryptonMessageBoxExButtons and KryptonMessageBoxExImage.

After that you have to compile the project.

I hope that helps.

Kind regards
