Big MessageBox

[Guest]

Hi,

I'm writing an application for a device with a touch screen using c# 2.0/
Visual Studio 2005. Since a touch screen is used, the fonts and buttons need
to be big. Unfortunatly I found no way to configure the MessageBox - neither
with manipulation of the object nor with subclassing. There are only static
methods and no access to the object. Did I overlook something?

My next approach was to make my own class BigMessageBox by subclassing Form.
But now I'm having problems with the dynamic size of the message. If you look
at the original MessageBox, the form first grows horizontally up to a
certain extent and then begins to wrap the text and grow vertically. How can
I do that? I tried Label and TextBox. Any help appreciated!

The font size for message boxes can be set globally in the Control
Panel Display applet.
