The vector stencils library "Messages" contains 10 Message dialog elements.
Use this notification dialog UI icon set to design graphic user interface (GUI) of your Windows 8 software application.
"A message dialog is an overlay UI element that provides a stable and contextual surface that is always modal and explicitly dismissed. Message dialogs appear at a consistent location on the screen. ...
Error messages that apply to the overall app context use message dialogs. ...
- Use message dialogs to convey urgent information that the user must see and acknowledge before continuing. ...
- Use message dialogs to present blocking questions that require the user's input. A blocking question is a question where the application cannot make a choice on the user's behalf, and cannot continue to fulfill it's value proposition to the user. A blocking question should present clear choices to the user. It is not a question that can be ignored or postponed.
- Use message dialogs to ask for explicit action from the user or to deliver a message that is important for the user to acknowledge. ...
- Use custom dialogs when the app or the system must invest a significant amount of time in the ensuing actions such that an accidental dismiss would be detrimental to the user's confidence.
- All dialogs should clearly identify the user's objective in the first line of the dialog's text (with or without a title).
- Don't use message dialogs when the app needs to confirm the user's intention for an action that the user has taken. Instead, a flyout is the appropriate surface. ...
- Don't use message dialogs for errors that are contextual to a specific place on the page, such as validation errors (in password fields, for example), use the app's canvas itself to show inline errors." [msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh738363.aspx]
The notification dialogs example "Messages - Vector stencils library" was created using the ConceptDraw PRO diagramming and vector drawing software extended with the Windows 8 User Interface solution from the Software Development area of ConceptDraw Solution Park.
