UltraDesktopAlert supports two different types of animation, fading and scrolling. They can be used in combination, i.e., a desktop alert window can be made to scroll out of view while beboming increasingly more transparent. It also supports different animation styles for the show and close transitions.
Note: Changing properties of the UltraDesktopAlert component when one or more desktop alert windows are open is not recommended; such changes will not be fully applied for desktop alert windows that are currently open. The HasOpenWindows property should be used to determine whether any desktop alert windows are currently open for this instance before changing property values.
