Hello team,

In an application there are toast messages whenever any form is submitted
which states success message of submission or thank you note type. these
toast message banner comes and goes away in few seconds.
Will the requirements mentioned in 2.2.1 timing adjustable be applicable
here? there is no action needed on these toasts.

Also what if such confirmation message is not in toast banner, rather part
of main content. takes some portion of main content and goes away after few
seconds?

Regards,
Megha

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

Hi Megha,

2.2.1 applies to both cases you mention. Toasts are a fail of SC 2.2.1 unless one of the list of exceptions is true.
