Alert (PRIM_MD.Alert)
Popup message box that closes automatically
Ancestors - Panel (PRIM_PANL) Container (PRIM_CPST) Control (PRIM_CTRL) Object (PRIM_OBJT)
An Alert is a simple popup message box that closes automatically after a short delay. The delay before closing is controlled by the Duration parameter of the ShowAlert method.
In this example, two buttons are used to display the alerts. Both are attached to the bottom of the screen, flowing up so that they don't overlay each other.
