Message Dialog
Microsoft Dynamics NAV 2015
Design a message dialog when you want to communicate to the user about a situation that is unexpected or exceptional with regard to a task they are doing. Use message dialog boxes only when a message is important enough that the user must know immediately.
Message Dialog guidelines
From the user’s perspective, the following are qualities of a well-designed message dialog page:
-
Is used only with regard to unexpected or exceptional situations, not for ordinary or routine dialog.
-
Presents a clear message in the user’s language and that the user finds valuable.
-
Has an icon associated to the message signaling the type of message, either information, error, warning, or confirmation.
-
Includes details only as required to understand the context for the message.
-
Provides one or more dismiss buttons with captions that unambiguously describes the function of each button.
