Create dialog instance
Set content, title, commands, transition etc
Invoke show()

[kumar mdu]

Thanks Maneesh for your reply.

I created dialog and set title and displaying by using show() method.

How to set the content? How to display the lengthy information to the user.?

Thanks again.

Same way like you would add any component (hint) to a container
For lengthy information, a non editable TextArea should do the trick

Thanks a lot Maneesh.

I did by adding label to the container. TextArea idea is really nice. Its working too.

How to remove the rectangular box of textArea?

Is this possible..?

Thanks again,
kumar

Rectangular box of TextArea?

[kumar mdu]

ya, Its displaying square like in textField. I want only text. Then only its looks good.

TextArea dialogTextArea = new TextArea(ContentText);
		dialogTextArea.getStyle().setBgColor(15398134);
		dialogTextArea.getUnselectedStyle().setBgColor(15398134);
		dialogTextArea.getSelectedStyle().setBgColor(15398134);
		dialogTextArea.getStyle().setFont(
				Font.createSystemFont(Font.FACE_SYSTEM, Font.STYLE_BOLD,
						Font.SIZE_MEDIUM));
		dialogTextArea.getStyle().setFgColor(16777215);
		dialogTextArea.setRows(6);
		dialogTextArea.setVisible(true);
		dialogTextArea.setEditable(false);
		topContainer.addComponent(dialogTextArea);

Try tweaking the getStyle().setBorder()

[kumar mdu]

Thanks Maneesh Godbole for your idea,

I tried

dialogTextArea.getStyle().setBorder(null);
dialogTextArea.getStyle().setBorder(Border.createRoundBorder(10, 10));

and all the possible way. It doesn't change to line, rounded border too.

How can i remove that border of text area..?

[Maneesh Godbole]

Are you using a theme?

[kumar mdu]

yes! I'm using theme but not for dialog!

[kumar mdu]

Thank you very much Maneesh Godbole.

I got a solution for dialog for lengthy information by using non-editable textarea without border.

Without border i used getStyle() method as

dialogTextArea.getStyle().setBorder(Border.createEmpty());

Thanks again,
