Hello, I saw on the original Cocoa|Forge Growl forums that this request had already been made about one year ago. The response at that time was that it would be too much work to implement. I just wanted to raise the topic once more (to show that there is interest in it) and to see if it's any more feasible to implement now than it was when the request was first made.
The issue is that for those of us with two or more monitors, Growl notifications only show up on the primary monitor. For various reasons, it can be difficult to take note of those notifications when working or focusing on a different monitor. There are theoretically a few approaches that could be taken, design- wise, to deal with this issue: 1) Have Growl messages broadcast across all monitor spaces; 2) Have Growl messages broadcast only to the monitor where the mouse cursor or window with active focus resides; 3) Have Growl broadcast only to the primary monitor, but leave messages on-screen if the mouse cursor or window with active focus does not reside on that screen. Not having much programming experience, I can't say which would be easier or more difficult to implement. Given that this has been stated as requiring much work to implement, and that the majority of Growl users are seemingly not using multiple monitors, I do not expect it to receive much attention or priority. Again, I just wanted to raise the issue once more, and perhaps provide a place for others to voice support and suggestions.
