Themes: Dialog

This sets the theme for dialogs, and is used to stylize scripted messages in a diaglog box (i.e. an application message box (VBA extension MsgBox). Note that this element is only available in Themes and is not a graphical control in the application designer.

(Dialog Type) - Globally sets the shape of the dialog when a dialog is used in an application at runtime. The types are: Balloon, Error, Information, Input, Question, and Warning.

Image - This property group changes in accordance to the dialog type selected. For example, if Dialog Type is Balloon, the image is automatically animated (i.e. spins). But if the Dialog Type is set to Question, then will show a different set of properties.

You can set one type per a theme and then stylize it, but a variety of dialogs (i.e. Balloon and Error) are not supported within the same theme. The selected dialog type can be customized when you change the properties.

The rest of the properties are used in the same way as the other controls.

For property descriptions, see Graphical Control Properties.

 

 

Note: The Buttons Property Group was removed in 5.2.4.3. Buttons - sets the graphical property settings for the buttons used in the Diaglog box.

The Title property was also removed in 5.2.4.3.
