<Toast>.Display (Function)

In french: <Toast>.Affiche

Displays a "Toast" message.

Toasts are a short messages that appear on the screen for a few seconds before fading out without any user intervention. A Toast message does not take focus, it is not modal and it does not interrupt the execution of application.

Toasts are recommended to show information to the user without locking the execution of application (example: displaying a message to indicate the end of download).

Syntax

Displaying a toast based on a Toast variable Hide the details

ToastDisplay(<Toast>)

<Toast>: Toast variable

Name of the Toast variable describing the toast to display.
Remark: The Toast variable allows you to define additional parameters.

Remarks

Management of threads

<Toast>.Display can be called from a WLanguage thread (to notify the user of events that occurred during the thread execution for example).

Successive calls

If <Toast>.Display is called several times, toasts overlap each other. If <Toast>.Display is called several times, each toast is displayed once the previous toast has disappeared. This behavior can be modified by using the ..Overlayable property of the Toast variable. This property allows you to get the same behavior as in version 24: toasts overlap each other.
