Im using the Faenza Icon Set which changes the default icons up in the
indicator. The mail icon goes from a medium grey to a light grey i a
message comes in, almost unnoticeable really compared to the green mail

benefit a lot of

empathy needs a persistent new message indicator

Setting this back to won't fix. The current design limits draw-
attention to events that you probably should address now/soon. Which
include email and chat. Gwibber messages don't draw-attention, so they
won't cause the icon to get the color. Idea being if the icon is green,
you should really
I rarely get IMs so I'm the sort of person who wants a blinking icon.
Please have an option, maybe something similar to the Windows taskbar
(e.g. blink X times then stay highlighted or blink constantly until the
user clicks on it).

Haha, I just remembered the online arguments I used to have with my ex
when her IMs wouldn't reach me. Glad I don't have a GF anymore, too
stressful.
Anyway, for the fact that this bug could cause break-ups I reckon it
should be marked 'critical' :).

you don't need to change the software you are using you can change the
empathy options to not use the indicator...

In Lucid beta the coloured icon is definitively an improvement, but I
still miss messages unless I make Empathy use its own notification area
icon (which blinks). A few months ago I was told the Indication Applet
wasn't supposed to inform me directly of new messages; I should look at
it actively,
What is the rationale for not blinking? It seems that most people want
it, and if Empathy is going to be the new default IM client for Ubuntu,
it should default to what people find usable. I'm getting the
impression that a blinking icon is perceived as an eyesore by interface
designers.
The icon is easier to notice, but I'm still missing chats by about 8/10
mins. Also I still have no idea what the icon is indicating. An email? Chat
message?
If I receive an email and a text message the icon looks the same. Worse if
I'm setting at my computer and see that an email just came through
Love the new icon, Sebastien. Great job, thank you.

I would like to add that if you go into empathy options and deselect the

there is a blueprint for this:

Another +1 vote to fixing this annoying paper cut. Ideally change color
depending on the messenger which is less annoying than something
blinking and on the pop up dialog show the number of pending messages

Another vote for this bug. It's annoying and embarrassing to have missed
an IM while AFK. People assume you are ignoring them when in fact, you
just didn't know. I've compensated by explicitly checking when I get
back to the computer, but really, that's not a good solution. Empathy

+2 for blinking. It has caused me some 'social' problems(girlfriend mad
because i don't answer, et al the lack of 'notoriety' in the
notification icon. I don't know, maybe instead of blinking, when a CHAT

+1 vote for blinking. Give this option to the user, even if it is off by
default.
Many of us have very busy screens. If it doesn't blink we will not
notice the new chat messages. The way it is now, it is either useless or
very annoying (I receive at least 10 calls per day from people asking

Yeah, I think a better behavior for the indicator applet would be to
flash when a chat is received and do what it's doing now for indications
that don't require immediate attention like emails, gwibbers, etc
Because the problem isn't really I-A not being obvious enough, it's that

Okay. I figured this bug was about the window showing up. But, if
we're talking about making the icon blink, that's
No it's not about the window not showing when you click on the alert in
the indicator applet, this is about not knowing that you have a chat
message available. I don't care if it blinks, but the behavior as it is
now causes chats to go unanswered.
Is there a more appropriate place for me to raise

Yeah... Plus you're not sure, at a glance, if it's changed due to an
