Re: Is 2.2.1 applicable on toasts

Hello Medha,
From the Understanding doc for the SC:
"Any process that happens without user initiation after a set time or on a
periodic basis is a time limit. This includes partial or full updates of
content (for example, page refresh), changes to content, or the expiration
of a window of opportunity for a user to react to a request for input.
It also includes content that is advancing or updating at a rate beyond the
user's ability to read and/or understand it".

Success / thankyou messages can be presented as alerts (assertive) or as a
dialog that the user can dismiss.
Thanks
