@peternlewis suggested in 2021 that the next version of KBM would contain a native way to auto-close after a user determined time but I can't find that option in the current version.
thanks in advance for your time and help
Add a Pause for x seconds action and a Manipulate a Window action after your display text action to close the last engine window.

On top of what @tiffle said, you can run those actions (the pause and manipulate engine window actions) in a subroutine, asynchronously, to allow the macro to continue doing more things as it waits to close the display text window.

That would have to be a submacro to be executed asynchronously.

Whoops, yes that’s what I meant to write.

Yes, it is an essential point to run it asynchronously, since it is only a question of displaying a notification a bit longer that the standard display text. By asynchronous, you basically mean to run it as a sub-macro which I understand. What more must I do to make it run asynchronously ?
thank you
Right click on the execute macro action and select the “Asynchronously” option.
