Ideally, the InfoBar would have two buttons (or a link and a button):

  • "Don't show again"
  • "Go to settings"

Currently, the InfoBar seems to have the following issues though:

  • the displayed text is exposed as "Message", which prevents adding a hyperlink
  • the button is exposed as an "ActionButton"
  • any "content" is displayed below the message and button as opposed to on the same line

This tracks figuring out a way to navigate to the settings UI while maintaining a "don't show again" button.

Idea: maybe we could put a SplitButton as the ActionButton and expose both options like that.

Team consensus:

  1. Make "Open Settings" the only button in the InfoBar
  2. Make the [X] permanently dismiss the tip.
  3. Measure interaction with these two fixtures.
