TToast

Fonte: source/classes/ttoast.prg

Inherits from: TWindow

TToast provides desktop toast notifications in the Windows 8/10 style. Notifications appear as layered windows that auto-position at the screen corner, auto-dismiss after a configurable timeout, and support header, body, footer text along with optional bitmap images. The control uses alpha blending for smooth transparency effects and drop shadows.

      320, 120, ;              // Width, Height

Notes

TToast uses the NewToast() static-like method as its primary API. It creates, positions, and shows the notification window in one call.
The text format uses ## as a separator: the first part becomes the header, the second part the body, and the third (optional) part the footer text.
On Windows 8 and later, the default style is dark with Segoe MDL2 Assets font. On older systems, it falls back to a light theme with Tahoma.
Opacity is controlled via nLevel (0-255). The window uses WS_EX_LAYERED and LWA_ALPHA for alpha blending.
Toasts stack automatically: each new toast positions itself above the previous one. The class-level aTToast array tracks all active notifications.
Clicking the toast invokes bReturn. The close button (if enabled) dismisses the notification immediately.
