Notifications

The smallest notification#

win:Notify({ Text = "Saved." })

Building it up#

win:Notify({
    Title = "Configuration",
    Text = "Your settings were saved.",
    Icon = "check",
    Duration = 4,
})

Signalling failure#

There is no separate error type; colour the icon:

win:Notify({
    Title = "Failed",
    Text = "Could not reach the server.",
    Icon = "triangle-alert",
    IconColor = Color3.fromRGB(232, 93, 93),
    Duration = 6,
})

Give failures a longer duration than successes. A confirmation can flash past; an error the user missed is an error they will hit again.

Spamming them is safe#

Toasts stack, and the stack is capped — five by default. When a sixth arrives, the oldest is dismissed with its normal exit animation rather than being destroyed outright, so a burst looks like a queue moving rather than the UI glitching.

Each toast also scales in as it arrives, which is what stops six simultaneous notifications reading as one solid block appearing.

Change the cap with Ember.Configure:

Ember.Configure({ Effects = { MaxToasts = 3 } })

They follow the theme#

Notifications are painted from the same palette as everything else, including their burn-in gradient and spark particles. Switching theme repaints toasts already on screen.
