WPF Toast Control for App Notifications and Status Updates

Overview

The WPF Toast Notification control provides a modern, lightweight, and flexible way to display alerts and notifications within your applications. It supports both fully customized toast layouts and native Windows system toasts, allowing developers to tailor the user experience. With extensive customization, flexible placement, severity variants, animation support, and icon integration, it delivers a highly adaptable notification system for any WPF application.

WPF Toast Notification code example

Get started quickly with the WPF Toast Notification by using the following code:

SfToastNotification.Show(this, new ToastOptions
 {
        Severity = ToastSeverity.None,
        Mode = ToastMode.Window,
        Title = "Notification",
        Header = "New Messages Received",
        Message = "Messages were shown here"
});

Flexible placement

Display toasts inside a window or anywhere on the screen with all eight standard positions: top-left, top-center, top-right, bottom-left, bottom-center, bottom-right, middle-left, and middle-right.

Severity and variants

Use built-in severity levels and layout variants to communicate notification importance and type.

Display toasts with severity levels such as info, success, warning, and error to indicate urgency.

Apply styles such as text, filled, and outlined to control visual presentation and match notification context.

Smooth animations

Built-in show and close animations provide smooth transitions and polished visual feedback when toasts appear and disappear from the screen.

Limit number of notifications

Developers can set the maximum number of toast notifications that can be displayed on the screen at once. This helps manage screen space and prevents clutter when multiple notifications are triggered.

Sounds

This feature enables toast notifications to play an audible alert when they are displayed. This improves user awareness by combining visual and audio cues, ensuring important messages are not missed.
