Remove banners added to the Queue about notificationbanner

[Daltron]

Hi @ashokkumars! 😄 Are you familiar with the queuePosition property when calling banner.show()? Or are you stating that you may have a notification that makes all other banners on the queue completely irrelevant, thus they should never be shown?

Hey @Daltron. I am aware of the queuePosition. But lets consider this case. I am calling 3 or 4 webservices in a class and all of them for some reason gets failed. All the error messages will be added to a queue. But before all banners gets shown (from the queue), if the device network gets disconnected, I need to show another banner which is for the network disconnect. After this banner is shown, showing webservice error banners is of no use. So, I felt like, there should be a method, which should allow me to clear the existing banner queue. This is just one use case, there can be many other cases as well.

@ashokkumars Ok perfect, thanks for explaining! I just added this functionality to the v1.4.1 release! 🎉

Hi, it looks like removeAll() is not there any more in 1.4.2. I also thought it would be quite useful to be able to remove all queued notifications. Is there a chance it will be put back or should we stick with 1.4.1 for now?

Edit: I think this functionality would also be useful if a user presses several things that trigger notifications in one view, they don't all get shown but are queued. The user then switches to another view. Now in the other view these notifications may be irrelevant and would come as a nuisance.

Also, it seems that the method removeAll is private in 1.4.1.

Hi @firvorski! 😄 This was an accidental mistake! It is now included and public in the 1.4.3 version! Thanks for bringing this to my attention! 👍
