MessageBar: Update existing message

[f4n0]

I would like to implement something in the message bare like the Azure portal notifications.
So it will be something like that:

1. An action is being enqueued --> Message "Action x is pending"
2. The action is being executed --> Modify the previous message with "is running" (maybe changing the icon or adding a loader)
3. The action has completed --> Modify the message in success/error and dispose it after X seconds

Can be made something like that?

Did you see https://www.fluentui-blazor.net/MessageBar#notificationcenter? So the mechanism to add a message to a list is already there. You can see the demo site code (part of the repo) how we dit that. Also see the example higher up on that page on how to add a message to the list.
We don't have specific examples on how to update such messages (and I do not now if that is actually working already), so you'd need to write your own code for that.

Yes I've seen that, actually I've used a lot to create my design!
It would be great if there can be added also an example for the NotificationCenterPanel (used in the examples)

By the way, I was able to "update" the message, but I'm stuck with trying to "refresh" the panel if already opened. Will try to find the best solutions for my case!

One thing that made all of that confusing is How to send a new message. The method is "ShowMessageBarAsync", but it actually push a message, it does not show the message. Can be renamed for clarity? (maybe in v5)

I think I've done it!
I'm not actually refreshing the same message instance, but I'm replacing the old one with a newer one!
Thanks
