How do I remove all toast messages currently displayed?

In my App, there is a list, when a user clicks on an item, a toast message is displayed,
10 items - 10 toast messages.

So if the user clicks 10 times, then presses the menu button, they have to wait for some seconds until they&#39;re able to read the menu option text.

It shouldn&#39;t be like that :)

Android - Hide all shown Toast Messages

When I use `Toast` to display some popup text on the screen, it displays the text a little bit above the bottom of the screen, which is the default position.

Now I want to display it in the middle of screen or somewhere according to my choice.

Can anyone guide me how to achieve this?

how can I change the color of Toast depends on message type in Angular material $mdToast?

I have made Android application a few months ago. The Toast class is very useful for me. 
I do not need to consider the main Thread and place to show it. Anywhere I can show it and just leave that and it is automatically disappeared.

    Toast.makeToast(context, msg, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

That&#39;s it. ^^

What about iPhone? Is there something like the Toast? Just show message and do not need to care about it. It will be automatically disappeared.

What is the android.widget.Toast equivalent for iOS applications?

I am displaying a toast message as the result of an if statement using the following code:

    Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), &quot;Please Enter Price&quot;, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

It is displayed as white text on a white background, as such it can not be read! My question is, how can I change the colour of the toast&#39;s text?

How to create Toast in Flutter

What does need to be imported or how can I call the Layout inflater in places other than activity?

    public static void method(Context context){
        //this doesn&#39;t work the getLayoutInflater method could not be found
        LayoutInflater inflater = getLayoutInflater();
        // this also doesn&#39;t work 
        LayoutInflater inflater = context.getLayoutInflater();
    }

I am able to call `getLayoutInflater` only in activity, is that an restriction? What if I want to create custom dialog and I want to inflate view for it, or what if I want to have Toast message with custom view that is shown from a service, I only have the context from the service I do not have any activity but I want to show custom message.

I need the inflater in places in the code that isn&#39;t in the activity class.

How can I do this ?



Call getLayoutInflater() in places not in activity

I&#39;m new to android and I&#39;m trying to understand the difference between `getApplication()`, `getApplicationContext(`), `getBaseContext()`, `getContext()` and `someClass.this` and especially when to use the these methods in the following code lines:

When I launch a toast what is the difference between these and in which cases to I use them?

    Toast.makeText(LoginActivity.this, &quot;LogIn successful&quot;, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    Toast.makeText(getApplication(), &quot;LogIn successful&quot;, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), &quot;LogIn successful&quot;, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
    Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), &quot;LogIn successful&quot;, Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

same with intents:

    Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), LoginActivity.class);
    Intent intent = new Intent(MenuPagina., LoginActivity.class);
    Intent intent = new Intent(getBaseContext(), LoginActivity.class);
    Intent intent = new Intent(getApplication(), LoginActivity.class);



difference and when to use getApplication(), getApplicationContext(), getBaseContext() and someClass.this

When Apple&#39;s official iOS Messages app is open and in the foreground, new messages from other contacts trigger a stock, native iOS notification alert banner. See image below.

Is this possible in 3rd party apps on the App Store? Local and/or Push Notifications for your app while your app is **open and in the foreground**?

When testing **my app**, notifications are received but **no iOS alert UI is shown**.

But this behavior **is** seen in Apple&#39;s official Messages app:

![Messages is open and in the foreground. Still shows a notification alert.][1]

The [Local and Remote Notification Programming Guide](https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/documentation/NetworkingInternet/Conceptual/RemoteNotificationsPG/Chapters/IPhoneOSClientImp.html) says:

 &gt; When the operating system delivers a local notification or remote notification and the target app is **not running in the foreground**, it can present the notification to the user through an **alert**, icon badge number, or sound.
 &gt;
 &gt; If the app is running in the **foreground** when the notification is delivered, the app delegate receives a local or remote notification.

So yes, we can receive the *notification data* while in the foreground. But I see no way to **present the native iOS notification alert UI**.

    -(void)application:(UIApplication *)application didReceiveRemoteNotification:(NSDictionary *)userInfo 
    {
        // I know we still receive the notification `userInfo` payload in the foreground.
        // This question is about displaying the stock iOS notification alert UI.

        // Yes, one *could* use a 3rd party toast alert framework. 
        [self use3rdPartyToastAlertFrameworkFromGithub]
    }

Is Messages then using a private API to display the alert while in the foreground?

For the purpose of this question, **please do not suggest any 3rd party &quot;toast&quot; pop-up alerts** on github or etc. I&#39;m only interested if this can be done using the **stock, native iOS** Local or Push Notification alerts UI *while your application is open and in the foreground*.

I&#39;m new to Android programming. What is a simple example showing a custom toast notification on Android?

Custom toast on Android: a simple example

I need the exact duration of LENGTH_LONG and LENGTH_SHORT in milliseconds (ms). Also I need to know if the duration of Toast message with LENGTH_LONG will have the same duration in any phone and with any API version.

Does someone know where is the duration defined ?, I mean defined in ms . I know that LENGTH_LONG is some int const with value 1. But I could not find where is the actual duration defined.


What is the duration of a Toast LENGTH_LONG and LENGTH_SHORT

Is there any way using Xamarin Forms (not Android or iOS specific) to have a pop-up, like Android does with Toast, that needs no user interaction and goes away after a (short) period of time?  

From searching around all I&#39;m seeing are alerts that need user clicks to go away.

Toast equivalent for Xamarin Forms

I have a slider that can be pulled up and then it shows a map. I can move the slider up and down to hide or show the map. When the map is on front, I can handle touch events on that map. Everytime I touch, a `AsyncTask` is fired up, it downloads some data and makes a `Toast` that displays the data. Although I start the task on touch event no toast is displayed, not till I close the slider. When the slider is closed and the map is not displayed anymore the `Toast` appears.

Any ideas?

Well start the task

**EDIT:**

    public boolean onTouchEvent(MotionEvent event, MapView mapView){ 
        if (event.getAction() == 1) {
            new TestTask(this).execute();
            return true;           	
        }else{
            return false;
        }
     }

and in `onPostExecute` make a toast

    Toast.makeText(app.getBaseContext(),(String)data.result, 
                    Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

In new `TestTask(this)`, this is a reference to `MapOverlay` and not to `MapActivity`, so this was the problem.

How to display Toast in Android?

I have an Android app running a thread. I want a Toast message to show with a message.

When I do this, I get the below exception:

**Logcat** trace:

    FATAL EXCEPTION: Timer-0 
     java.lang.RuntimeException: Can&#39;t create handler inside thread that has not 
        called Looper.prepare()

     at android.os.Handler.&lt;init&gt;(Handler.java:121)

     at android.widget.Toast.&lt;init&gt;(Toast.java:91)
     at android.widget.Toast.makeText(Toast.java:238) 

Is there a work around for pushing Toast messages from threads to the User Interface?

My guess it that the lightweight notifications in Android are called &lt;a href=&quot;http://developer.android.com/guide/topics/ui/notifiers/toasts.html&quot;&gt;Toast&lt;/a&gt; because they popup like toast from a toaster.  Can anyone confirm this or provide a better explanation?  I am teaching a course on Android development and would like to edit the wiki, so I want to be sure to get it right.

Why are Android popup messages called toasts?

I am trying to get the context in my AsyncTask of the class called Opciones(this class is the only one that call that task) but I don&#39;t know how to do it, I saw some code like this:


          protected void onPostExecute(Long result) {
		
		Toast.makeText(Opciones.this,&quot;Subiendo la foto. &#161;Tras ser moderada empezara a ser votada!: &quot;, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); 
    }


But it doesn&#39;t work for me it says: `&quot;No enclosing instance of the type Opciones in scope&quot;`

What does &quot;toast&quot; mean?

I&#39;m trying to show a Toast Message when user click on a Button inside a Fragment. The problem is I cannot access the activity to show the Toast on it.

Here&#39;s the source of `Fragment`:

        public class FrgTimes extends Fragment
        {
        	ScrollView sv;
        	public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, ViewGroup container,
        			Bundle savedInstanceState) 
        	{
        		if (container == null) { return null; }
        
        		sv = (ScrollView)inflater.inflate(R.layout.frg_times, container, false);
     
                btnTime1.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {
    			public void onClick(View v) {

                //******  HERE&#39;s the PROBLEM  ********
    			Toast.makeText(&lt;The Activity&gt;, &quot;Please long press the key&quot;, Toast.LENGTH_LONG );
	
    			}});
    
                return sv;
            }

and Here&#39;s what I&#39;ve been tried.

    Toast.makeText( getActivity()  , ...
    Toast.makeText( getView().getContext()  , ...
    Toast.makeText( getActivity().getApplicationContext()  , ...
    Toast.makeText( sv.getContext()  , ...
    Toast.makeText( sv.getRootView().getContext()  , ...

In Debug I can see that all of these codes run without any exception but no `TOAST` being displayed.
