Hi, recently started to use notifications extensively and found two (to
me) annoying details:
1) The height of the notification panels is not fixed. It usually
increases, but there are situations where they shrink too.
Example 1: there are a few visible/active notifications. When I close
any of them the rest will grow a few pixels taller.
Example 2: I make the system volume higher/lower using a keyboard
shortcut repeteadly. When the volume changes, first the notification
grows, them the next time shrinks, then grows, etc.
To fix this I modified Notification::setValues() in notification.cpp.
The last line of the function was:
setMinimumHeight(qMax(rect().height(), childrenRect().height()));
which I replaced by:
int h = qMax(rect().height(), childrenRect().height());
setMinimumHeight(h);
setMaximumHeight(h);
It works for me...
2) I find it tiring to have to aim at (tiny) the close button on the
upper right corner of the notifications to be able to close them. I'd
rather prefer that clicking in any part of the notification closes it.
To obtain this behavior I modified the Notification::mouseReleaseEvent()
function. That function has a cicle in it that on certain conditions
closes the notification, right? I don't really understand what it does
but I simply replaced the whole cicle for a call to
closeButton_clicked() and now I have it working the way I wanted:
void Notification::mouseReleaseEvent(QMouseEvent * event)
{
// qDebug() << "CLICKED" << event;
QString appName;
QString windowTitle;
if (m_actionWidget && m_actionWidget->hasDefaultAction())
{
emit actionTriggered(m_actionWidget->defaultAction());
return;
}
closeButton_clicked();
}
This most probably isn't the right way to do it (the code I deleted
surely had a purpose!), so I should I do it? What should I expect to
fail with the above implementation?
Thanks in advance for any hints...
Mario
