Different hideAfter value (or behaviour) depending on the Type #105

Open rtarnec opened 8 years ago

Hello,

Is it possible to parameter Messenger in such a way that:

Messages of Type "success" hides after e.g. 10 seconds (you just want to indicate that everything is ok);
Messages of Type "error" can only be hidden by clicking on the close button (or other possibility, it hides after e.g. 3 minutes). -> There is an error, you want it to be visible for a longer time and that the user performs an action in order to hide it.

thx

FYI, I've solved a part of the requirement by overriding the default hideAfter value in case it is an error:

function showMessengerMsg(message, type) {
    var msgObj = {
        message: message,
        type: type,
        showCloseButton: true,
        id: "myMessengerAlert"
    };
    if (type == "error") {
        msgObj.hideAfter = 180;
    }
    Messenger().post(msgObj);
}
