HOW TO

This is simple and really fast.

Reference the assembly:

xmlns:toastinet="clr-namespace:Toastinet;assembly=Toastinet"

Just add this xaml code in your main grid layout page: (this is the xaml part that allows you to customize your control)

<toastinet:Toastinet x:Name="Toast"
                             Title="Toastinet"
                             Canvas.ZIndex="1"
                             VerticalAlignment="Top" />

Then, you just have to set the Message property of the Toast control to see the toast appear:

Code behind:

this.Toast.Message = "This is a basic toast";

Binding:

If you use MVVM, you can set the Message property with a binding:

<toastinet:Toastinet Message="{Binding Message, Mode=TwoWay}"/>

That's all !

Customization

You can customize background, duration, font, height, animations, text wrapping, content, position, queue:

<toastinet:Toastinet x:Name="Toast2"
                     Duration="1"
                     Height="105"
                     FontSize="25"
                     AnimationType="Vertical"
                     Background="#2ecc71"
                     Foreground="Black"
                     TextWrapping="Wrap"
                     Canvas.ZIndex="1"
                     VerticalAlignment="Top" />

Queue

A queue system has been implemented. Just set the Queue property at "True" to enable Queuing. Then, each time the Message value changed a new toast is queued to be displayed.

Advanced functionnality

Override the default content with your own:

<toastinet:Toastinet x:Name="Toast"
                    Canvas.ZIndex="1"
                    VerticalAlignment="Top">
          <Textblock Text="Custom content"/>
</toastinet:Toastinet>

Rules

ShowLogo property is deprecated. If Image property is null then the default image is hidden. If Title property is null or empty, the default title is hidden. Default Duration is 3'' Height is now auto.
