Customization

You can change the appearance of a message box or a tooltip. Create a custom CSS class or apply a built-in one from the DHTMLX library.

Use custom CSS classes

Follow these steps to apply a custom CSS class:

• Add one or more CSS classes with the settings you need. Place them in the <style> section of your HTML page or in a separate stylesheet. If you use a stylesheet, include it on the page.

<style>
    .my_first_class {
        /*some styles*/
    }
    
    .my_second_class {
        /*some styles*/
    }
</style>

• Specify the name of the created CSS class (or names of classes separated by spaces) as the value of the css property in the configuration of a message box, alert box, confirm box, or tooltip:

dhx.message({
    css:"my_first_class my_second_class"
});

For example:

<style>
    .custom {
        --dhx-font-color-primary: var(--dhx-color-white);
        --dhx-background-primary: var(--dhx-color-primary);
        --dhx-font-size-normal: 16px;
    }
</style>

<script>
    dhx.message({
        text: "Here is dhtmlxMessage",
        icon: "dxi dxi-close",
        css: "custom"
    });
</script>

Use built-in CSS classes

The DHTMLX library includes a set of built-in CSS classes that you can apply to change the appearance of either a message box or a tooltip:

dhx.message({
    css:"dhx_widget--bg_gray"
});
