The toast is a timed, temporary notification that displays a message at the top or bottom of the screen when triggered.
There are 4 types of toast: Info, Warning, Error and Success. The type can be selected in the Notification Type dropdown and the color of each type is set in the Theme Builder.
The Info, Warning, Error and Success colors are the same throughout the app and across different widgets (eg. Buttons).
The Display Time is the amout of time the toast will be visible for in milliseconds. You can type the display time in the number box. The default is 3 seconds.
You can choose where the Toast appears on the screen. There are 6 options: either at the top or bottom of the screen, and right, left or center.
When adding the toast widget to the app UI builder, it will look like a small message icon. The icon disappears on the deployed app or in test mode, so the location of the widget doesn't matter.
To set the toast message, drag an output onto the widget. The only action that can be performed is "call message".
The content of the output is the message in the toast, and the call message action is triggered when the output is updated.
Multiple outputs can be connected to the same toast widget, and the toast will only display the message in the output that was triggered.
Note: Messages that are linked to the same toast and are triggered at the same time will all appear stacked in the same spot. To avoid that, it's advisable to either stagger the trigger events or set up extra toasts.
All customization options in the toast widget are in the Settings tab .
