B4A Library [B4X] [XUI] AS DropDownBox - simple in app snackbar/notification/information panel

I spend a lot of time in creating views, like this and to create a high quality view cost a lot of time. If you want to support me and further views, then you can do it here by Paypal.

Spoiler: Dependencies/Libraries you need for this view

Any Suggestion ?

ddb.Base.TextColor = Colors.Red

because the base is not a label.
Use the Label property.

ddb.Label.TextColor = xui.Color_Red

 

[Pravee7094]

because the base is not a label.
Use the Label property.

ddb.Label.TextColor = xui.Color_Red

Thanks. Understood

Awesome control, I have a few suggestions if it is possible with this library at all.

* Parameter to auto hide after X time.
* Stackable dropdowns
* Ability to use Panel or Layout with the dropdown to customize dropdown
* If above is not possible, maybe action buttons?

Hello
If we want to put a button in this DropDownBox, how should we do it?
