Dylan, This animation really does add a nice effect, especially when used with compiz. Nice work. I'm testing your branch now. The animations are obviously must smoother than the in the screencast, but not bad for a reference.
** Attachment added: "Notification animation" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/23128400/out.ogv -- support X and Y hints for notifications https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/333517 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Notify OSD Developers, which is subscribed to Notify OSD. Status in Canonical's Notification Display Agent: New Bug description: Many applications use the X and Y hints to explicitly place their notifications. This is typically accessed in libnotify via notify_notification_attach_to_widget. Very popular to link a notification to a status bar applet. In fact, this functionality is even showcased in the concept video! <http://www.markshuttleworth.com/archives/253> It would be sensible to support this hint in notify-osd. To go with the "relaxed" design philosophy, the notification itself should not be placed according to the hint, but when it fades out (and perhaps when it fades in) it should indicate the widget it is attached to. This way the user will know, if he wishes to act on the notification, exactly which button to press. I suspect that this would work better than the existing "place the notification at the hinted location no matter what" behaviour of the original notification-daemon, since here developers can set location hints knowing that they aren't being obtrusive. Thus, no need for more buttons; just point the user to where they already exist. So, err, please support this hint! _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~dx-team Post to : [email protected] Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~dx-team More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
