Display message boxes

For some applications, you'll want to display a message box to inform the user of something that has or might occur.

Adding a message box

To add a message box to your application:

1.	Go to a Composition Editor open on a visual part in your application.

2.	Select (Prompter category) and (Message Prompter part).

3.	Click on the free-form surface.

Changing the settings for the message box

Define what the message box displays by changing its settings:

1.	Open the Message Prompter part's Properties window.

2.	Specify the iconType, title, messageString, and buttonType.

Connecting the message box to other parts

After you define a message box, you make an event-to-action connection so the message box displays when the event occurs.

Connect the event, such as clicked for a push button, to the prompt action of the Message Box part.
