Hi Nate,
I assume you can control the fading process through a timer and have it
disappear after a specified number of seconds that does need to be too long, or
once an event like scrolling takes place.
You could also replace the long message by a single, non-fading but dismissable
icon (e.g. document-edit-sign-encrypt.svg from breeze). Hovering over it would
display the text, left clicking would toggle the signatures panel, right
clicking would dismiss it. I wager that would be much more discreet; you'd
still need to click to dismiss it but if it doesn't obscure that much viewable
area, I am guessing it wouldn't matter as much.
Just thinking out loud here, I am sure you will figure out the best and
quickest way to go about this!
