Unexpected behaviour in messages

I encountered unexpected behaviour when trying to show a message from a task.

In this example I configured a task 'dummy_task’ which only functionality is to show a message 'dummy_error’.

The message is configured to be a popup. When this is executed, the result is as expected:

 

However when a task parameter is added, the configured message is not anymore of the type popup, but is suddenly shown as a panel message.

This is a problem, because when I add audio to the message, this is not played with the panel message.

Could someone look into this? For now I have a workaround by creating a process flow, but that is not optimal.

Hi ​@gerardzeeman,

When the task pop-up and the message pop-up both try to raise a pop-up, the message is demoted to a panel message.

If there are no conflicting audio sources the audio added to the message should still play.

Please raise this as a bug in TCP.
