Can an Android Toast be longer than Toast.LENGTH_LONG?

android, android-toast

Solution

The values of `LENGTH_SHORT` and `LENGTH_LONG` are 0 and 1. This means they are treated as flags rather than actual durations so I don't think it will be possible to set the duration to anything other than these values.

If you want to display a message to the user for longer, consider a Status Bar Notification. Status Bar Notifications can be programmatically canceled when they are no longer relevant.

Problem

When using setDuration() for a Toast, is it possible to set a custom length or at least something longer than `Toast.LENGTH_LONG`?
