Bounds Property (UltraDesktopAlertWindowInfo)

Returns the current location and actual size of the associated desktop alert window.
Syntax
'Declaration
 
Public ReadOnly Property Bounds As Rectangle
public Rectangle Bounds {get;}
Remarks

The Bounds property can be used by listeners of the DesktopAlertClosing event to determine the size and location of the desktop alert window at the time it was closed.

Example
The following code sample demonstrates how the DesktopAlertClosed event can be used in conjunction with the ScreenLocation property of the UltraDesktopAlertShowWindowInfo class to show desktop alert windows at the same location as the last one that was shown.

For an overview of how to handle events in Visual Basic or Visual C#, see Event Handlers in Visual Basic and Visual C#. For specific information and code examples illustrating how to consume events in your application, see Consuming Events in the .NET Framework Developer's Guide.
