Our v19.2 release includes a new Badge control. With its API, you can display a badge over any control or UI element, be it a data grid column or a Toolbar\Ribbon item. In addition to standard WPF properties, our Badge control ships with numerous customization options.

Shape

The Badge API includes a predefined shape set. You can use predefined shapes without modification or customize a shape via the CornerRadius property: WPF Badges - Shapes

Color

The Badge API also includes a Badge.BadgeKind property. Each BadgeKind ships with a predefined color value.

Color values can vary based on the DevExpress Theme used in an application.

You can specify custom Badge colors via Badge.Background, Badge.BorderBrush, and Badge.Foreground:
