notification-popup-window's Issues

Change font-size / HTML Text

i dont find a way to change the font-size or also create diffrent style for the text.

Can't set image in vb.net win form application

popup.Image = Properties.resources.noticon
I get a squiggly line under properties with an error message saying (properties is not declared)

Multiple Notification Support

Is there any support for multiple notifications, e.g., if there are 3 notifications, can they be stacked vertically one on top of the other?

Popup shows on Display #1 always

In multiple display situations, the popup always shows on the display windows considers the main display from Display Properties, Identify Displays.

If the app is running on another monitor, the popup may not seen (or is likely to be missed).

Any chance you could modify the popup method to detect which display the app is running on to ensure its shown on the same monitor as the app?

How hide gently while appearing

I'm looking for a way to hide gently the popup while opening ...
Please help me

    public void HideNow()
    {
        tmrWait.Stop();
        isAppearing = false;

        tmrWait.Interval = Delay;

        realAnimationDuration = 1;

        tmrAnimation.Interval = AnimationInterval;

Popup not showing

Added the sample code provided and the popup doesn't show up:

                    var popupNotifier = new PopupNotifier()
                    {
                        TitleText = "Title of popup",
                        ContentText = "Content text",
                    };
                    popupNotifier.Popup();

Add Right to Left Support in Title & Content Text!

It will get even better if you add RTL text support in Title and Content text for users with RTL languages like Persian and Arabic.
Nice work!!!

PopupNotifier object does not dispose

When I call the dispose method on PopupNotifier Object and observe the debugger, the object seems to be not disposed as the Process Memory does not show any decrease in size.

Here's what i done:

        public void ShowPopup()
        {
            popup = new PopupNotifier
            {
                TitleText = "Popup Test",
                ContentText = "Barcode generation success !",
                ShowOptionsButton = true,
                ShowGrip = false,
            };

            popup.Disappear += OnPopupDisappear;
            popup.Close += OnPopupClose;
            popup.Popup();
        }

        private void OnPopupClose(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            popup.Dispose();
        }

        private void OnPopupDisappear(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            popup.Dispose();
        }

Radio Button Feature

Is it possible to have a radio button inside the notification window?

Popup not appearing

I create a new PopupNotifier, assign a TitleText and a ContentText. I call the Popup method, but nothing is showing on the screen. I have also assigned a handler to the Appear event which does fire, but I see no notification on the screen.

using Tulpep.NotificationWindow;

namespace DrakeAccountingScheduler
{
    public static class Notifier
    {
        private static PopupNotifier Notification;

        static Notifier()
        {
            // Use this to dress up our notifier as we wish
        }

        public static void Notify(string title, string message)
        {
            Notification = new PopupNotifier {TitleText = title, ContentText = message};
            Notification.Appear += Notification_Appear;
            Notification.Popup();
        }

        private static void Notification_Appear(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
        {
            
        }
    }
}

onClick behaviours

i wish it would be possible (onClick) to:

1. launch another function after that (i have an browser.Reload(); function relating to CefSharp)
2. bring my form1 in front and focus it (its usualy in the background or minimized somewhere)
3. close the notification window on that same click.

is it? - if yes.. please tell me how.
