Timing for popup alerts

Team,

I have created a popup in power apps, where in the popup is displayed after a mail is sent. The visible property of the popup is set to a variable and when the mail is sent the UpdateContext({vart:true) function is used to show the popup. This is working fine. However i want the popup to show only for say 5 seconds and then fade away or reset. Can this be done?

Right now the app has to be reset or logged in again to get the popup to go away. Also i have another popup before this and that goes away as the final step in that popup uses the UpdateContext({vart:false) function. hence it woks fine.

The popup in context here is a text box and one icon grouped together. The visible property is set as varMailSnt (the variable)

My question is.... is there a way to set a preset amount of time before a popup can be made invisible without any user input?

Hi @power_addict ,

The only way would be with a Timer set the timer Start to a Variable (varTimer used below) and also the pop-up at the same time - on your trigger

UpdateContext( { varTimer:true, vart:true } )

Set the Timer Duration for 5000 and OnTimerEnd

UpdateContext( { varTimer:false, vart:false } )

You can hide the Timer, but it must be on the same screen
