BUG: InfoDialog Flickers to blue variant when closing error dialog.

[rohan-pandeyy]

Is there an existing issue for this?

• I have searched the existing issues

What happened?

When an InfoDialog is displayed with the error variant (red) and then closed, there's a brief flicker where the dialog momentarily changes to the info variant (blue) before disappearing. This creates a displeasing visual experience for the user.

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Start the frontend only (Do not start backend)
2. This will cause the app to go on a "Loading images" state for a while
3. "Error, Failed to load images. Please try again later." dialog shows up
4. Click "Close"
5. See issue

Expected behavior:

The InfoDialog should maintain its error variant (red background) throughout its entire closing animation until it is completely gone. It shouldn't change to any other variant throughout this moment.

Hi @rohan-pandeyy & @rahulharpal1603 !!

I have got your point.

Before Update:

before_update.mov

After Update:

after_update.mov

Why?

Previously hideInfoDialog reset variant to 'info' immediately, which could be rendered during the closing transition and cause a blue flash. Keeping the current variant until the next showInfoDialog call removes the flicker.

Please assign it to me.
