TimeOut in JavaScript Toast control

23 Mar 2023 / 2 minutes to read

The toast can be expired based on the timeOut property. The toast can live till the time out reaches without user interaction, a time out value is considered as a millisecond.

The timeOut delay can be visually represented using Progress Bar.
The extendedTimeOut property determines how long the toast should be displayed after a user hovers over it.

You can terminate the process by using the showCloseButton property for destroying the toast at any time.

Static toast

You can prevent auto hiding in a toast as visible like static by setting zero (0) value in the timeOut Property.
