Show Toast Action

Example​

A Toast is like a quick shout-out on the screen to give operators a heads-up or provide some quick info.

They usually pop up after operators or the machine did something, and then they usually disappear automatically after a short time. Unlike modal dialogs, they're made to not disturb operators too much, so they can keep doing their work without interruption.
