The quick "Close" button defies its own purpose by showing a permanent pop-up overlay that hides the “Close” button - unlike other pop-ups that disappear after a second or so. The pop-up needs to be x-ed out to reveal the “Close” button again. When working on closing out a long backlog of tickets this kind of defies the purpose of having this shortcut available. Certainly this is an oversight, this pop-up should time out by itself.

I agree with this suggestion as I’ve received a number of complaints from our agents.

The pop-up message is not placed well and it stays there for too long, slowing down tasks in a sequence that require options hidden beneath the notification.

This could also be solved by moving the pop up to somewhere on the screen where it’s not in the way, say bottom-center of the page.

100% - we’ve been bugged by this since starting with Freshservice nearly 4 years now.  Just never thought to put this in as a feature request!
