Hi,

Looking at the "Style 1" design in the Dialog examples, it's very similar to a Mac dialog box and I'm wondering if it's possible to tweak it so that it looks exactly like a Mac dialog box, specifically:

1) position the Close button on the left instead of the right;

2) change the colour of the Close button to red;

3) change the image in the Close button from a cross [x] to a dot [.];

3) centre the Dialog title.

Thanks,

Mark

Hi Mark,

I do not think #1 is possible. For #2 and #3 you would just change the close button image. The dialog does not have any built-in support for #4. You can try to use HTML code instead of plain text for the dialog title text and see if that works.

Hope this helps.

Thanks

Shame - would look so cool on a Mac! Maybe something to consider for a future release...?

I presume you mean the CloseButtonUrl property? Currently, this is set to "00020312". I'm guessing that this is an embedded resource in the EO_Web.dll. Is there a list anywhere which shows these...?

D'oh! I really could have taken the time to RTFM - sorry...d'oh!

Code: HTML/ASPX
HeaderHtml='<div style="padding-top:5px;text-align:center">Dialog title</div>'

Hi,

"00020312" is an embedded resource. You can give it a Url though. Just click the drop down on the property in the property window and you should be able to see all the options.

Thanks

I don't have a drop down on the property in the propery window - that's why I'm asking if there is a list somewhere of these embedded resources...

That would be a problem. Would you be OK for us to take a look of your machine? We can setup an online meeting for you to share your desktop with us.

Thanks
