A simple example of how to make a custom YES/NO dialog with DialogResult in WPF. Freely (as in beer) available code is on Github: https://github.com/Hitman666/CustomYesNoDialogWPF. The breakdown is that you make a new window (MsgBoxYesNo) and assign DialogResult on the button clicks. You call this window as a dialog from a MainWindow and expect a bool in return upon which you act as you wish… MsgBoxYesNo.xaml:
<Window x:Class="CustomYesNoDialogWPF.MsgBoxYesNo" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" Title="MsgBoxYesNo" Height="300" Width="300" WindowStyle="None" ResizeMode="NoResize" WindowStartupLocation="CenterScreen" AllowsTransparency="True" Background="Transparent"> <Border BorderThickness="5" BorderBrush="Black" CornerRadius="20" Background="SkyBlue"> <Grid> <Grid.RowDefinitions> <RowDefinition Height="3*"></RowDefinition> <RowDefinition Height="1*"></RowDefinition> </Grid.RowDefinitions> <Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <ColumnDefinition></ColumnDefinition> </Grid.ColumnDefinitions> <Viewbox> <TextBlock x:Name="txtMessage" Width="420" FontSize="50" TextWrapping="Wrap" HorizontalAlignment="Center" VerticalAlignment="Center" TextAlignment="Center" Text="Are you sure you're awesome?"/> </Viewbox> <Viewbox Grid.Row="1"> <StackPanel Orientation="Horizontal"> <Button Content="Yes" x:Name="Yes" Margin="1" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="55" Click="Yes_Click"/> <Button Content="No" x:Name="No" Margin="1" HorizontalAlignment="Left" VerticalAlignment="Top" Width="55" Click="No_Click" IsCancel="True"/> </StackPanel> </Viewbox> </Grid> </Border> </Window>
MsgBoxYesNo.cs:
public partial class MsgBoxYesNo : Window { public MsgBoxYesNo(string message) { InitializeComponent(); txtMessage.Text = message; } private void Yes_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { DialogResult = true; this.Close(); } private void No_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { DialogResult = false; this.Close(); } }
MainWindow.cs:
private void Button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) { MsgBoxYesNo msgbox = new MsgBoxYesNo("Are you sure you're awesome?"); if ((bool)msgbox.ShowDialog()) { MessageBox.Show("Yes, you're awesome!"); } else { MessageBox.Show("You're kidding, of course you're awesome!"); } }
