# layout.toast

A short message that appears over the page and leaves on its own, sometimes with one action: saved, could not send, undo. Holds one feedback.* line and at most one action

Component: [`<Layout>`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/components/layout.md) · Renders: `<div>` · Role: `status` · Profile: [UI](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md) · Comes from: starter

## Example

```tsx
<Layout intent="layout.toast">
  <Text intent="feedback.success">Project archived.</Text>
  <Action intent="action.command" verb="undo" onClick={undo}>Undo</Action>
</Layout>
```

## Choosing between neighbours

Find the row that describes your element, and use the intent on the right.

| If it is for… | Use |
|---|---|
| A short message that appears over the page and leaves on its own, sometimes with one action: saved, could not send, undo. Holds one feedback.* line and at most one action | `layout.toast` (this page) |
| A message that stays on the page until dismissed | [`layout.notice`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/layout/notice.md) |

## Connections

Declared in the registry, both directions. Where an intent is used in your own code is something check and the gallery see; this site has no app code.

- Built from: [`surface.panel`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md#surface-panel), [`arrange.row`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md#arrange-row)

## For registry authors

**Starter intents.** These are the intents `prongs add` puts in your registry, shown in this site’s theme. Yours are your own `registry.ts`: rename, restyle and add to them, and see them with `prongs add gallery`.

What this intent is built from and its entry in `components/prongs/registry.ts`. You only need this to change how it looks or to add an intent like it.

How layout.toast resolves, and its definition

Each layer adds to the one before it; a later class wins over an earlier one that sets the same thing.

- [`surface.panel`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md#surface-panel) — Bordered box, one level above what it sits in

  ```
  surface rounded-lg border border-surface-border
  ```

- [`arrange.row`](https://www.prongs.dev/docs/intents/ui.md#arrange-row) — Children in a wrapping row

  ```
  flex flex-row flex-wrap items-center
  ```

- `layout.toast` (this page) — A short message that appears over the page and leaves on its own, sometimes with one action: saved, could not send, undo. Holds one feedback.* line and at most one action

  ```
