Set Toast Appear Length

Question

Is there anyway I can tell a Toast Notification to show up only for a specified amount of time. Generally shorter then a regular toast message.

Answer 1

//try it

    public void myToast(String message) {
    LayoutInflater myInflator = getLayoutInflater();
    View myLayout = myInflator.inflate(R.layout.custom_layout,
            (ViewGroup) findViewById(R.id.toastlayout));
    TextView myMessage = (TextView) myLayout.findViewById(R.id.label);
    myMessage.setText(message);
    Toast toast = new Toast(getApplicationContext());
    toast.setView(myLayout);
    toast.setDuration(400);
    myMessage.setGravity(Gravity.TOP | Gravity.CENTER_HORIZONTAL
            | Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL);
    toast.show();
}
