1.1 Badge Configuration

Badges provide a way to display notifications, counters, or status indicators overlaid on the button.

Properties

Property	Description	Default Value
BadgeText	Sets the text displayed in the button's badge. Use for notifications, counters, or status indicators overlaid on the button.	"" (empty string)
BadgeColor	Defines the background color of the badge. Choose contrasting colors for optimal visibility against the button's background.	Color.Red
BadgeTextColor	Sets the color of the text within the badge. Ensure sufficient contrast with the badge background for readability.	Color.White
BadgeFont	Specifies the font used for the badge text. Consider using condensed or smaller fonts for compact badges.	new Font("Segoe UI", 8f, FontStyle.Bold)

Key Points to Note

Point	Description
Badge Positioning	The badge is automatically positioned at the top-right corner of the button. Ensure that the button size accommodates the badge without overlapping important UI elements.
Visibility Control	A badge is only visible when BadgeText is not empty. Use it to indicate new messages, notifications, or status updates relevant to the button's action.
Dynamic Updates	Updating BadgeText dynamically reflects changes immediately, allowing real-time notification updates.
Accessibility Considerations	Ensure that badge text is accessible by providing meaningful descriptions for assistive technologies.

Code Example

// Creating a SiticoneRadialButton with a notification badge
SiticoneRadialButton radialButton = new SiticoneRadialButton
{
    Text = "Messages",
    BadgeText = "5",
    BadgeColor = Color.Green,
    BadgeTextColor = Color.White,
    BadgeFont = new Font("Arial", 10f, FontStyle.Bold)
};

Best Practices

Practice	Description
Consistent Styling	Use a consistent color scheme for badges across your application to maintain a uniform look.
Minimal Text	Keep badge text concise (e.g., single digits) to avoid clutter and ensure readability.
High Contrast	Choose BadgeColor and BadgeTextColor with high contrast to enhance visibility and readability.
Purposeful Usage	Use badges sparingly to indicate genuinely important information, preventing user desensitization to frequent notifications.

Common Pitfalls and Design Considerations

Pitfall	Description
Overlapping Content	Ensure that the badge does not obscure the button's main content or image, especially with larger badge sizes or long texts.
Dynamic Badge Sizes	Varying BadgeText lengths can cause inconsistent badge sizes. Implement size constraints or dynamic sizing logic to maintain uniformity.
Accessibility Neglect	Without proper descriptions, badges may not be accessible to users relying on assistive technologies. Provide meaningful AccessibleDescription.
Performance Impact	Excessive use of badges with frequent updates can impact rendering performance. Optimize update logic to minimize performance overhead.

1.2 Border Styling

Borders define the outline of the button, adding emphasis and separation from other UI elements.

Properties

Property	Description	Default Value
BorderColor	Defines the color of the button's border. Use to create visual boundaries or emphasis.	Color.FromArgb(94, 148, 255)
BorderWidth	Controls the thickness of the button's border in pixels. Minimum value is 2 for visible borders.	2

Key Points to Note

Point	Description
Visibility Threshold	A minimum BorderWidth of 2 ensures that the border is visible. Adjust as necessary to match design requirements.
Color Coordination	Align BorderColor with the button's BaseColor and other color properties to maintain a cohesive design.
Scaling	When resizing the button, ensure that BorderWidth scales appropriately to maintain visual consistency.

Code Example

// Configuring border properties
radialButton.BorderColor = Color.DarkBlue;
radialButton.BorderWidth = 3;

Best Practices

Practice	Description
Subtle Borders	Use border colors that complement rather than overpower the button's background color to maintain visual harmony.
Consistent Thickness	Maintain uniform border widths across similar buttons to enhance visual consistency and professional appearance.
Responsive Borders	Adjust BorderWidth responsively based on button size to ensure borders remain proportionate and aesthetically pleasing.

Common Pitfalls and Design Considerations

Pitfall	Description
Too Thick Borders	Excessively thick borders can make the button look bulky and may interfere with other UI elements, reducing overall aesthetic appeal.
Low Contrast Colors	Borders with low contrast relative to the background may become hard to distinguish, reducing visual clarity and user feedback.
Inconsistent Styling	Varying border styles across similar buttons can create a disjointed and unprofessional user interface.
