Is this a bug, or a feature? With some notifications, if you click on the icon it'll launch the related app, and if you click on the text of the notification (e.g. 'abrt applet') it'll pop up a full notification. This is pretty good. With others, you have to click on the icon to get anything to happen; clicking on the text does nothing.
For me, this is the case with Xchat and Fedora's update applet: with both of them, if I click on the text, nothing at all happens. If I click on the icon, the appropriate action happens (xchat comes to the foreground, or the update app launches). The xchat one in particular is really annoying, because it means the notification acts as if it's running away - i move my mouse over the icon and it moves away to display the name of the app, clicking on which does nothing at all! I have to carefully position my pointer over the icon to make it move away, then carefully move my pointer again to the new location of the icon to actually click on it and get xchat to activate... I think when there's no more detailed notification pop-up to be displayed when you click the text, clicking the text should simply do the same as clicking the icon. (of course I never do this because it's so finicky, I just alt-tab to it. but still. actually, i think the movement behaviour is a bit buggy depending on exactly how you move the pointer within the notification area.) -- Adam Williamson Fedora QA Community Monkey IRC: adamw | Fedora Talk: adamwill AT fedoraproject DOT org http://www.happyassassin.net _______________________________________________ gnome-shell-list mailing list [email protected] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gnome-shell-list
