I believe it takes precedence over any other setting.

When you click the x to close them (except for with music video and bezel, since they don't use sticky) > Does it ever go away?

Yes.. I don't get how this is unclear. > And inactivity by who? By you. The inactivity is no activity on the entire machine, i.e. you walked away to go get something from the car and came back, you went to the kitchen to do something, things of that nature. > Me, or the application? > And if it does then go away after n seconds of inactivity, how is this > compatible with it being a 'sticky' notification? Nowhere does it say that things will go away once they are set as sticky. This is a convenience preference that a lot of people asked for that allows for the notification to stick around while people are away. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Growl Discuss" group.
