[Bug] Email alerts don't match 1 second setting #272

Closed asdsadsaasd12312132 closed 7 months ago

asdsadsaasd12312132 commented 7 months ago

I have my email alert duration set to 1 second. The notification is lasting much longer than this.

You didn't mention whether you're using system alerts (on Windows, Linux or Mac?) or the "inbuild" alert.

The latter is launched here ... https://searchfox.org/comm-esr115/rev/50fb88d0210042cc01e558a7f15cbdd0e72fb9c7/mailnews/base/src/MailNotificationManager.jsm#409 and pulled down here: https://searchfox.org/comm-esr115/rev/50fb88d0210042cc01e558a7f15cbdd0e72fb9c7/mailnews/base/content/newmailalert.js#76,81,88

Fading in/out takes its time. If you set pref ui.prefersReducedMotion to 1, there is no fading and it's really displayed for 1 second.

BTW, you didn't follow the bug submission guidelines. Try it in TB first, then file a bug at TB's Bugzilla. We're not here to fix all 15.000+ TB bugs. But anyway, it works as designed.

I'm using the inbuilt alert.

Our comment referred to the inbuilt alert and you can reduce the display time by disabling the animation (fade in/out).

How do I disable the animation? I can't find it under incoming mail.
