GeneXus X Evolution 2 offers to developers the possibility to improve how validated inputs are shown on screen in web applications, making more visual attractive messages when displaying an "Msg" or an "Error" rule for example.

On GeneXus X Evolution 1 and before, the position of Error and MSG Rules that appear when a field gets validated can't be configured.

As you can see, the message has been relocated to the right by default, the red background has also been removed and an Image was also added to the beginning of the message and it doesn't overlap any other control on screen. But this can also be configurated, so new possibilities for developers and designers to improve this aspect of the applications.

This new group of properties are under "Client Side Validation behaviour"
