Hi. I'm new to Growl 2.x, but I used Growl 1.x for a long time. Consequently I'm new to the rollup feature, and while I like it, I find myself frustrated by a bunch of things. My primary growl use is Twitter.app, and so a rollup may have hundreds of notifications in it when I come back to it (e.g. overnight).
I'd really like to be able to click on a notification in the rollup and have it go back to the app, e.g. if it has a URL to follow or an image or something. I imagine this is tough (does the app time out notification callbacks?). So the next best thing would be able to copy/paste from the rollup, which seems like a no-brainer. Except it doesn't work. Also to be able to recognize URLs and open them in the default browser. Any chance of getting those enhancements in the next release? As an awkward workaround, I can open the prefs and go to the History tab and copy/paste from there. But it is definitely quite awkward. I also have some general usability issues with the rollup window. Invariably if I hide it (because I'm trying to get some work done), it just keeps popping up while I'm typing. Even if I bind a global key shortcut to it, this happens. There doesn't seem to be a way to "hide rollup and keep it hidden," short of pausing Growl, which is not what I want. Also, when it is present, it's not always so clear which window is the active window. So I've hit Cmd-W and closed the rollup when I meant to close the tab in my web browser, and vice versa. That's annoying. Not sure what to do. Any thoughts? Thank you. I searched for these issues in the forum and didn't find much; an older thread that ran off the wheels quickly about unrelated topics... Also, the Contact page's developer resource seems to be in need of an update. http://growl.info/contact references http://cia.vc/stats/project/growl which is password-acl'd, and http://cia.vc/ suggests the site is gone for good.
