My current approach is a yellow notification at the top.
This notification will disappear after n seconds.
If the user clicks the notification, the deletion will be undone.

@nextcloud/designers What's a reasonable time after which the notification can disappear?

This touches on the bigger issue of notifications in general. see nextcloud/server#301

@georgehrke the general agreed upon time is 7 seconds. 5 is just a bit too short to notice, and 10 is too long.

And yeah, just to clarify: We talked about this if we want to use an undo notification in the place where it happens or on top. Right now it seems a notification up top is better since then it’s out of the way and seems quicker. We can directly fade out / animate away the element. @georgehrke the animation part is important for visual feedback, check how we do it in the Mail app with slideUp. :)

Even with the undo function, there should have a confirm prompt in the first place, as explained in #573

[jancborchardt]

@patrice-geo no, both confirmation and undo do not make sense. You can read about why confirm prompts are a bad idea at https://alistapart.com/article/neveruseawarning

Is this still worth it with the trashbin?
