It sounds like this is putting the horse before the bit -- there is still a lot of turmoil out there regarding NotifyOSD's positioning. The "Work for Lucid" section *should* say something more like
" Positioning: Determine the driving requirements for notification bubble positioning and separate them from the 'nice-to-haves'. Perform a trade study comparing all possible solutions against the requirements to identify those that satisfy requirements." We can keep moving the notifications around every time Ubuntu is released, * or* we could pin down *what we actually need* to accomplish in notification positioning and get it done. Right. This time. -Scott On Wed, Nov 11, 2009 at 11:26 AM, mac_v <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi , > > Recent update in the Lucid specs: > https://wiki.ubuntu.com/NotifyOSD#Work%20for%20Lucid > > " Change in position: The top of any notification bubble should be > positioned near the bottom right corner such that if the bubble grows to > its maximum height, it is snug at the bottom right corner.
