Redesign idea for Widgets.Toast #378

Open alainm23 opened 4 years ago

alainm23 commented 4 years ago

Hi, I've been working on a little quick notification widget for Planner. It's based on Widgets.Toast, I'd like to know what you do think?

image Simple notification: I decided to hide the close button (and make it visible when the cursor hovers over the notification) since this notification only lasts a few seconds (2500 ms) and it is very likely that the user will not have the time to go there, read the notification and close it. I also added an image to give a general idea of the objective of the notification.

image Notification with action: Same design as above but removing the image so that the notification label is visible at first glance.

We would probably want the close button to be more similar to the notifications one, but yeah, I could be fine with doing it up on the corner like that.

@alainm23 I think your idea is pretty great, are you still able to open a PR with your work?
