[Bug 331369] Re: regression vs. notification-daemon: positioning when multiple screens are available
Same error here. Laptop with main screen, and a HD television screen hooked up via hdmi cable which I use to watch videos while working. Moving the tv screen from the bottom display to the top display actually fixed the notification problem, but created other problems , with Guake Terminal for instance, which I use frequently while working. The best workaround I've found so far is using the follow-focus method as mentioned in comment #104, however this is certainly imperfect as the notifications are now positioned slightly differently from normal which is mildly annoying though temporarily livable. Using the unofficial methods as discussed in this thread (http://askubuntu.com/questions/128474/how-to-customize-on-screen- notifications) to make notifyOSD configurable and then setting the notification positioning from fixed to dynamic actually gave more normal positioning, but unfortunately also altered the look of the notifications themselves. Perhaps I'm being picky , but I found that even more bothersome and distracting. Currently, notifications as they look and work on normal single screen setup are beautiful and draw the eye enough to do their job, but no more. In other words, nearly perfect. I really hope you will soon address this issue.

This is similar to the question I posted recently against notify-osd (https://answers.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/notify- osd/+question/158709). My situation is 64-bit Natty with Separate X and Xinerama on a NVIDIA Quadro FX 350M. The Top Panel, with all of its icons, is repeated on the second monitor (a gripe in and of itself). Evolution notification pop-ups are on the primary display, but the Top Panel mail icon is colorized in the secondary monitor (less obvious). This in contrast to Evolution alarm notifications for meetings, where the alarm icon is added to the primary monitor as I would expect.

Slight modification to https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/natty/+source /notify-osd/+bug/331369/comments/93, above. Further evidence thatg raising alerts on the secondary monitor is not helpful to the user is that with Unity-2d running now, the Network Connection, Evolution New Email, etc. are actually popped up on the secondary monitor of this Separate X/Xinerama setup.

After looking into the source for a bit, it seems that my issue is when it doesn't detect any panels (gnome-panel anyway) it defaults to using workarea fallback which completely ignores multi-head focus-folllow and uses the entire desktop size instead of a specific monitor. I just made changes to the code to make it default to the first monitor (or the focus monitor if defaults_multi_head_focus_follow exists) instead of the entire desktop. My changes are very specific, though. I don't have a top panel (or any gnome-panels for that matter) AND I'm using multiple screens.

[Bug 331369] Re: regression vs. notification-daemon: positioning when multiple screens are available
Simple workaround (for developpers;-))
In a terminal:
# get sources
bzr branch lp:notify-osd
cd notify-osd
./autogen.sh
Open the file src/defaults.c
search the last line of the function defaults_get_top_corner (the 2nd last
line at all, ~2266)
insert the following code:
int x_conf = gconf_client_get_int (self-context,
/apps/notification-daemon/x, 0);
if (x_conf != 0)
{
g_debug (read x: %d, x_conf);
*x = x_conf;
}
in the commandline:
cd ..
make (ignor errors if there is the outputfile src/notify-osd)
# backup original...
sudo mv /usr/lib/notify-osd/notify-osd /usr/lib/notify-osd/notify-osd_old
# copy new version (self compiled)
sudo cp ./src/notify-osd /usr/lib/notify-osd/notify-osd
Now you have to reboot or the kill the notify-osd and restart it...
So, you can now open the gconf-editor, insert a new integer in /apps
/notification-daemon/x and set it to you prefered x coordinate, where
de popups should be show, I choos 900, for a 17 TFT, the first of
two...

Yes, you have to create the new key at your own, that's true. The coordinate depends on your screen resolution and your preferred position Ex.

[Bug 331369] Re: regression vs. notification-daemon: positioning when multiple screens are available
I'm not really sure, but I looked at the code, and I think its not possible at the moment. As I see the new bubble (how a tooltip is called) is always positioned below the others (in display.c, function stack_display_position_sync_bubble) y += bubble_get_future_height (async); y += EM2PIXELS (defaults_get_bubble_vert_gap (d), d) - 2 * EM2PIXELS (defaults_get_bubble_shadow_size (d), d); you can see, they add always the size, if you change this to -= instead of += and if you now change in defaults.c the function defaults_get_top_corner and add at the bottom: *y = [height of you screen - 200] it may works... But it's a really bad solution! I haven't read the code at all, and I'm not sure if it's really works...

Me either. With: VGA compatible controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c) Display controller: Intel Corporation Mobile GM965/GL960 Integrated Graphics Controller (rev 0c) I have similar issue as Valentin described above (see attachment). I have also secondary graphic card (nVidia) in my laptop so I will test soon how does it work on the same system. Still I think that would be the best to let the user decide (config options) or at beginning relate notification popups with notification area on panel. ** Attachment added: Screenshot.png http://launchpadlibrarian.net/27445458/Screenshot.png -- regression vs. notification-daemon: positioning when multiple screens are available https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/331369 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

I'm having the same issues. I'm running Ubuntu 9.04, notify-osd-0.9.11, and nvidia twinview and I cannot for the life of me get my notify-osd to appear anywhere other than the top-right of my right most monitor (Which happens to be the farthest away from me... making notifications almost useless). I've tried gconftool-2 -s -t string /apps/notify-osd/multihead_mode focus-follow ... no luck. Also it should be noted that I do not have any top panels, nor do I plan on adding any. Should I try notify-osd-0.9.12?

Re: [Bug 331369] Re: regression vs. notification-daemon: positioning when multiple screens are available
Daniel: it does appear that if your panels are at the bottom then the notifications would display at the top right of your virtual display. If moving the panel to the top bothers you, can you perhaps move your larger monitor to the right? Just an idea... I can now confirm that this bug is fixed for me at least...I switched to 2 X displays with Xinerama. You lose 3D acceleration, but I wasn't using that anyway. Thanks Devs!

This is driving me absolutely crazy. It's not really the fact that the notifications are on the wrong screen that's the problem. It's the fact that they will actually work properly on my primary screen for a little while and then break.

[Bug 331369] Re: regression vs. notification-daemon: positioning when multiple screens are available
There are no config files at this time to position notify-osd from what I can see. Looks like its been decided to hardcode in the position to the upper right of the screen.. This is a nightmare when considering we remove the upper panel right away from all new ubuntu installations because users we are switching over from windows want to have something as familiar as possible during their transition.. Its hard enough to get users to switch, and then when we get them to do it, we would like it to be as easy for them as possible. This means notifications down by the system tray in the lower right, and a single panel, and no wasting screen real-estate with a 2nd top panel. -- regression vs. notification-daemon: positioning when multiple screens are available https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/331369 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 331369] Re: regression vs. notification-daemon: positioning when multiple screens are available
Ryan, my analysis is not incompatible with your problem. The positioning logic in notify-osd is not very sophisticated and TwinView, which the developers may not have been able to perform substantial testing under, introduces additional complications. One problem, which I described above, will occur if and only if there is no GNOME panel at the top of the screen. As you still have the top panel then you are experiencing a different bug arising from similar logic. I like your idea, Oli, although I am not sure if there is a reliable way to query the GNOME desktop to locate the notification area. The method for locating just the panel is rather cumbersome, albeit reasonably reliable; each window on the desktop is iterated in an attempt to match one with a specific class name. Perhaps the maintainers can think of a way? (There are additional structural problems in notify-osd which would need to be resolved to position the OSD at lower parts of the display. e.g. The height of the bubble is not currently known when the positioning logic is invoked, because it is not required when the bubble starts at the top and grows downwards.) -- regression vs. notification-daemon: positioning when multiple screens are available https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/331369 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 331369] Re: regression vs. notification-daemon: positioning when multiple screens are available
I just want to mention that I have the same positioning issues with xrandr and not twinview. Previously, with my screens stacked vertically (smaller screen above a larger one), the notifications would appear (I believe) in the top-right corner of the virtual display, which was a non-visible section. Re-arranging the screens side-by-side 'fixes' things, but at the cost of 3d acceleration (the virtual display is now greater than my card's 2048x2048 limit). @jcornwall -- perhaps having the bubbles grow upward from the bottom would be simpler than trying to change the positioning logic? -- regression vs. notification-daemon: positioning when multiple screens are available https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/331369 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

[Bug 331369] Re: regression vs. notification-daemon: positioning when multiple screens are available
I've taken some time to investigate this properly. This problem will arise on an NVIDIA TwinView configuration when there is no GNOME panel at the top of the screen; either through being removed or moved elsewhere. notify-osd is programmed to follow the top panel only, quite explicitly and I believe this design was intentional. The fallback path attempts to place the OSD at the top-right of the desktop area - which spans all monitors in a TwinView configuration and hence appears on the rightmost monitor. I am not sure what the correct solution is. I have made a private patch to fix this on my system but it is not suitable for wider release. -- regression vs. notification-daemon: positioning when multiple screens are available https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/331369 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
