About Action Toast
Action Toast is simple, quick, single line popup notification system for iOS in the style of Toastfor Android. Action Toast implements the same calling structure and styles as Toast for Android to assist in cross platform development.
Easy Implementation
Need to quickly catch a user’s attention with a single line notification? Action Toast makes it easy. Either create an object of type ACToast
and fill out it’s properties or use the static MakeText
method of the Action Toast class to create a popup. Next call the Show
method to display it, just like in Xamarin.Android.
Multiple Locations
Action Toast can be set to display in multiple locations by setting the gravity property:
- Top
- Center
- Bottom
- Custom – A user defined location
All locations take the device’s screen rotation into account so they always display correctly.
Multiple Display Lengths
Action Toast can be set to display for a given amount of time by either providing the number of seconds to display or by using a ACToastLength
as:
- Forever – the message will display until the user taps it or it is closed programmatically.
- Short – display for one second.
- Medium – display for two seconds.
- Long – display for five seconds.
Features
Action Toast includes a fully documented API with comments for every feature. Action Toastis available exclusively as part of the Action Component Suite by Appracatappra, LLC.
