Message Popup Option for Message Notification to Go Away After a Set Time Period

[Shawn_S.]

Could R&D develop an option to make the standard message pop up automatically go away after a set period of time?  I understand that the message pop up is typically used to receive input from the user/operator, but other times I would just like to notify the operator of pertinent information and then have it go away.  It would be nice if there were a checkbox to enable this feature and then a text box where I could enter the time in seconds I would like the pop up displayed.

Regards,

Shawn S.

Hi Shawn, I believe the default TestStand Message Popup contains an optional timeout field that does exactly this.

I found this feature in the bottom right hand corner of the step settings pane.  Thanks much!

I think the Message popup step type needs quite big enchancements. There are quite a few separate ideas reffering to the different improvements of that step.
