how to close nagbar (without using the mouse) ?

I added a 'hibernate' button to the exit-i3 nagbar menu, but when the laptop comes back from hibernation, the nagbar is still waiting there, and I need to close it with the mouse. Is there any way to make it go after one of its buttons is pressed? or with a bindsym?

Thanks

No, and that is intentional. Its purpose is to nag you.

You should not use i3-nagbar for any customization, like the hibernate button you added. Please use a different solution (e.g. dmenu) for such things.

Thanks for the tip,with dmenu it works great, no need to use the mouse.

@Michael, I just saw your comment after a lot of work. Is there any risk or something to use i3-nagbar to custom alerts/warnings? I made buttons to lock, logoff, suspend, save and exit, restart and shutdown. Found this way easier than a bind for each action. Bellow my config:

bindsym $mod+$aux+e exec "i3-nagbar -t warning -m 'What do you want?' -b 'Shutdown' $shutdown -b 'Restart' $restart -b 'Suspend' $suspend -b 'Save Session and Exit' '' -b 'Logoff' 'i3-msg exit' -b 'Lock' $lock" All variables are commands with ' '.
