I have 2 labels in my winform. say 1 is passed..2nd failed..The visiblity property is set to FALSE in both the labels property tab. I have some function doing.I need to do like this..

If that function is a success, then the 1st label(passed) should be made visible.If the function is a failure then the 2nd label(failed) should be made visible.

Any help would be really appreciated..

Thanks in advance..

Are you using any update panel?

In your form, create a method

C#

ShowOutcome(bool success)
{
    successLabel.Visible = success;
    failureLabel.Visible = !success;

    // Eventually, do some more visual stuff like changing texts or so
}

Call that method when your function knows whether it is a success or not.

[Edit]
To display neither label, you can create such a method:

C#

ClearOutcome()
{
    successLabel.Visible = failureLabel.Visible = false;
}

Solution 1

Your question is totally unclear to understand.When your function is a success then make

C#

yourLabelName.Visible= true

and when your function is a failure then make it

C#

yourLabelName.Visible= false

See some examples also..

Actually, there are two labels with XORed visibility.

@lukeer: How it can be cleared??how this can be achieved??

If you mean to hide both labels, I updated my answer.
And please put comments referring to a solution in the comments section of that solution.

boolean value=null;
when your function success make it as value=true else value=false.
Then check it later..
if(value)
yourLabel.Visibility=Visibility.Visible;
else
yourLabel.Visibility=Visibility.Collapsed;
