What steps will reproduce the problem?

2. Set Notification Combat Event to Raid Warning (Fake)
3. Set Duration to something short, like 3 seconds

What do you expect to happen?
The warning should disappear after the set duration.

What happens instead?
The warning stays longer, about 10-12 seconds

What version of TellMeWhen are you using? ("The latest" is not a version)
8.1.2

Works perfectly for me. Does the issue still happen with all other addons disabled?

Thanks, you are right Cybeloras - TMW works perfectly if I disable Deadly Boss Mods (DBM). Would you have any idea what might cause this, or if there is any possible work around? At least some info to send a bugreport to DBM devs if possible. Any help appreciated, and thanks alot for all your great work on TMW!

I use BigWigs myself, which would explain why I've never noticed this myself. Not sure why it would be happening. If you want to submit a bug report to DBM (I would appreciate it!), mention this:

Parameter 4 to RaidNotice_AddMessage( noticeFrame, textString, colorInfo, displayTime ) seems to be ignored when DBM is enabled. Perhaps DBM is overriding this function and forcing the displayTime to a DBM-configured setting?

It's not something that's intentionally done. I'll probably start pruning some more under used legacy options/features until I can figure out which one fixes your issue. I'll push a test alpha of DBM with a a few things pruned to see if it solves issue.

I know dbm overrides the position of RaidWarningFrame frame but it doesn't do anything else to it. which to be honest I'm not even sure why it does that so I may disable that as part of my pruning. There is a lot of legacy stuff here that I still end up running into from time to time that should be gotten rid of and this is probably one of them anyways.

Try this version https://wow.curseforge.com/addons/deadly-boss-mods/files/8355-7-0-4-13-g2ba1e36/

It turns out issue was not actually DBM but a 3rd party skinning solution that skins DBM (so disabling DBM disabled that skinning solution). None the less it helped me remove something that hasn't been used in a LONG time. DBM used to use RaidWarningFrame to add messages to chat years ago, but hasn't in forever, but was still repositioning it. So i got to remove that at least!
