[RichWidgets] Set a parameter to the Feedback Message on how long it must be displayed

In some cases the feedback message widget is displayed to long/short. It possible to change that but then you'll need to clone the RW eSpace and make the change youself.

It would be nice if there was a input paramter where the display time could be set. On this way it's more useble in different situations.

Especially the error-message, since it doesn't hide

In order to avoid to have custom implementations of the Feedbackmessage (RichWidget).

It would be nice if the Feedback_Message (Richwidget action) wouldhave new optional parameters to set:

- Autohide (True if message should automatically disappear after X seconds [timeout to hide])

- Timeout to hide (Message disappears after X seconds)

 

Currently:

- Warning and Error messages are not automatically hidden.

- Timeout to hide the feedback message is hardcoded and set to 15seconds 

 

Alternatively new Site properties would also do the trick, one to hide automatically messages of all types and another one to change the default timeout of 15 seconds.

Alternative: just 1 optional parameter, AutohideTimeout: if 0, feedback message stays always visible; if > 0, feedback message auto hides after the value that was specified.

Would also be nice to have an overridable default somewhere, to avoid having to specify the autohide/timeout for each message.

Had same idea a while ago regarding the time shown:

Would love to see some of the built in widgets get more flexibility like this, without having to reinvent.

Currently, to change any default behavior around feedback messages, you need to do all of this:

"By default the feedback messages of the type Warning and Error, don't disappear automatically since they are usually used to display important information and usually we want the user to acknowledge the message hence the fact the message doesn't disappear automatically. As for Success feedback message and Info one, the feedback message should disappear after 15seconds. This is the default behavior of the feedback message from RichWidgets. If you want to change this behavior you would need to clone the Feedback Message logic and webblock and change the logic to send the autohide parameter set as true for all the feedback messages.To change the default 15seconds of wait before the feedback message disapears you would need to change the javascript of the feedback message webblock. Then the last step would be to replace the Richwidgets Feedback_Message Webblock by the cloned one. The Feedback_Message Webblock is used on the webblock WidgetsForLayout from the WebPatterns and that webblock is used on the Dublin layout. Since these elements are considered system components you would also need to clone them as you did with the Richwidgets Feedback Message one in order to be able to customize them, both widgets for Layout as well as the Dublin Layout."

I think 15 secs is too much for a feedback message and might have impact on UIX. It would be great to be able to customize this values through site properties or something similar.

Actually it is possible to tweak it somewhat.

It's possible to tweak it, but the idea is to make it configurable.

I've done it myself in the past but that so not wishfull regarding the JS on all the RW blocks etc. It's more that it's an easy modification that would improve it a lot.

It would be nice if in the feedback message we have a parameter to define the timeout of the toaster.

Another nice to have could be that in the action parameter we could define something about the animation and position of the toaster (I know that is defined in the theme...)



TIA

This would be nice indeed! We just had a requirement of a customer that would like to see the those messages to be quicker removed from the screen. Especially the informational messages.

Merged this idea with 'Manual setting for Feedback message hide time.' (created on 22 Nov 2017 06:01:49 by Manoj Ahirwar)

If we can set hide timeout for Feedback message because in some cases we don't need feedback message for that long.

Hi,


It would be great if there is an extra parameter (in seconds) to hide the feedback message (error, alert, success).


Or there should less default time to go off the feedback messages. Currently it is taking so much time to hide it.


Regards

Merged this idea with 'Feedback message should go away on any action' (created on 04 Aug 2020 11:21:25 by Prajakta Roshankhede)

We apply feedback message for actions like select at least one option. But even after selecting option the feedback message does not go away unless and until we explicitly click on cross or we navigate to another screen.

Basically feedback message should go away after some time or on any action on screen.

Merged this idea with 'Add timeout to mobile/pwa/react messages to close automatically' (created on 02 Oct 2020 14:54:05 by Stacey Levine)

There should be  way to set a timeout or time to close on a message that gets displayed using the message widget. This can be for any message type and should not require writing custom javascript.

In the meantime you can implement this behavior as described in the following post:

Merged this idea with 'Configuration of time for "Feedback Message".' (created on 15 Aug 2020 15:21:05 by Vipasha Sharma)

Feedback message should have configurable session time i.e. to adjust the time of feedback message so that it can be disappear from screen when given session time over.

Merged this idea with 'Feedback Message Time Closing' (created on 18 Feb 2021 13:22:18 by Carlos Eduardo Baldo)

The idea is to put a parameter in the feedback message informing the time when the message will close.

Indeed would be nice.

In the meantime use https://success.outsystems.com/Documentation/11/Reference/OutSystems_APIs/JavaScript_API/FeedbackMessage#showFeedbackMessage

Wrap it in a client action and you can use it today already.
