Specifying custom target

By default toast can be rendered in the document body, we can change the target position for toast rendering using target property. Based on the target position will update.

Close Button

In default showCloseButton is not enabled. We can enable it by setting true value. Before expiring toast we can use to close or destroy toasts manually.

Progress bar

In default showProgressBar is not enabled. If we enabled it can visually indicate when will the toast gets expired. Based on the timeOut property Progress bar will appear.

Progress bar direction

By default, the progressDirection is set to “Rtl” and it will appear from right to left direction. You can change the progressDirection to “Ltr” to make it appear from left to right direction.

Newest on top

In default, newly created toasts will append next with existing toast. We can change the Sequence like inserting before the toast, by enabling the newestOnTop.

Here below sample demonstrates the combination of target, showCloseButton, showProgressBar and newestOnTop properties in toast.

Width and height

we can set toast dimensions through width and height property. This will individually set all toasts, we can create different custom dimension toasts.

In default toast can be rendered with ‘300px’ width with ‘auto’ height

In mobile device toast default width gets ‘100%’ width of the page. When we sets toast width as ‘100%’ toast will occupies full width and displayed top or bottom based on position Y property.

Both width and height property allows setting pixels/numbers/percentage. The number value is considered as pixels.
