==================
Hi guys.

As I am getting more proficient with LS, I am finding that in creating, editing and troubleshooting surveys that the notifications that appear on every save at the top of the page are HUGELY impacting my ability to work quickly because they ALWAYS seem to cover the primary menu item.

This is becoming frustrating because I need to click save and as soon as the menu at the top re-renders I want to click on it and go on to the next thing instead of having to close the notification popup div manually.

Is there a setting or an admin custom css that I can use to either disable that or move it to some other part of the screen that I don't care about?

We need to figure out a less intrusive notifications presentation system for LS, it's not quite right from a usability perspective, imho.

Any suggestions are welcome, thx!

Sorry to drag up an old post but did you ever find a solution to this? It drives me mad as well and slows down my ability to navigate to what I want to do next, constantly waiting for the popup message to disappear.

I did find an alert.scss file in the Limesurvey installation directory which might be what's used to show the popup but I don't know how to disable it.

It's clearly a UX issue !

Must be reported to be (maybe) fixed !

Completely agree: this is annoying.

Better to have a small area in the screen dedicated to messages than superimposing a message that needs to be clicked away (of you have to wait...).
