iPhone like red badge notification in a WPF project?
- by Norbert
I have a C# WPF project which generates daily and weekly reports automatically. I want to inform the user when new reports are available, so I thought of a badge like on the iPhone where the number of new messages appears on a little red circle:
I thought of three images: Two images with semi circles on the left and right if the number to display is small. And a third image for the middle for the case that the number is large (123) and wouldn't fit in a circle.
I want a glossy effect, so I've thought of pictures. Does anyone have a good idea how to do this without pictures but programmatically?
