This could possibly enable the notifications to start of right in the bottom left, and grow upwards while still being easy to follow. The sync bubble could either be displayed right in the corner with the async bubble above it, or alternatively in the top right corner, meaning both bubbles could be right in the corner, if this is a concern to people. Sorry I'm not in a position where I can create a demonstration of this working at the moment. -- Matt Wheeler m...@funkyhat.org _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
