[Bug 390508] Re: notify-send ignores the expire timeout parameter
wirespot, the variable durations are not implemented yet. Once they are, you'll find that Screen saver ON will display for 5 seconds rather than the current 10, which should be much less annoying. Adrian Roman, this has little if anything to do with users' freedom to alter the environment, because the timeout parameter is for application developers, not end users. We think we can set more consistent and reliable durations for users automatically than diverse application developers ever could manually. Calculating the appropriate duration will be *more work* for us than simply heeding the timeout parameter, but we think it will be worth it. For your remote control work, which sounds very cool, I suggest you either (1) enhance notify-send (or find someone to do it) so that you, and anyone else, can set replaces_id, (2) use a scripting language that lets you set replaces_id instead of using a shell script, or (3) if you really want a challenge, work out how to integrate the remote control volume changes into gnome-settings-daemon so that it generates the standard volume bubbles instead of notification bubbles. Marco Chiappero, it is true that expire_timeout is not part of the Hints table and therefore not explicitly optional, though I could get all RFC-2119 about it and point out that the definition of expire_timeout uses the word should rather than must. We are fortunate that the Desktop Notifications Specification was flexible enough to allow what we wanted for notifications in Ubuntu, so we didn't need to fork it. movaxes, showing synchronous things like which workspace you've just switched to would be a misuse of notifications, which are for asynchronous things. But provided you follow the software license, you're welcome to adapt the Notify OSD code for your own synchronous overlays. Justin Clift, if your application is distributed in an official Ubuntu archive or a PPA, you can expect unfavorable ratings and reviews in future if installing it produces ugly notifications not just in your application but in every other application too. And regardless of how the package is distributed, the Ubuntu Software Center will issue a warning if installing it involves uninstalling anything else (such as notify-osd). If you are more specific about what you want, designers could help you find a more harmonious solution; I suggest mailing the Ayatana mailing list https://launchpad.net/~ayatana with details. ** Changed in: notify-osd (Ubuntu) Status: Triaged = Won't Fix -- notify-send ignores the expire timeout parameter https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/390508 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

Public bug reported: Binary package hint: openoffice.org OpenOffice.org 3.0.1, Ubuntu 9.04 By default, OpenOffice.org Writer's Standard toolbar contains two toolbar buttons with near-identical icons: Spelling Grammar and AutoSpellcheck. During Canonical user testing, one test subject said: The only thing that I'm not quite sure about is that there's two like 'ABC' check [buttons], I'm not sure [which is which]. An easy way to resolve this confusion would be to remove the AutoSpellcheck button from the set of buttons shown by default, since toggling automatic specllecking on and off almost certainly is not one of the most commonly desired commands in OO.o Writer.

[Bug 394335] [NEW] Nautilus Changing Backgrounds help is tl; dr and doesn't cross-reference desktop background
Public bug reported: Binary package hint: ubuntu-docs Ubuntu 9.04, all updates installed During Canonical user testing, one test subject followed this path in trying to change the desktop background: 1. opened Places Desktop 2. chose File System, then Documents in the resulting file manager window 3. double-clicked on Desktop 4. chose Edit Backgrounds and Emblems... Add a New Pattern..., Cancel, Add a New Pattern..., Desktop (in the file picker), Cancel, Help 5. started reading the help, even confirming that it was helpful (yeah, I just got to figure it out), but did not finish reading it or follow its instructions 6. chose Add a New Pattern... again, and tried to drag one of the images in the list to Desktop in the filepicker sidebar (I was thinking you could drag it to the folders) 7. started reading the help again, but again didn't finish 8. dragged one of the patterns in the list into the Documents window, which changed just the background of that window 9. chose Edit Backgrounds and Emblems... again, but it stayed behind the filepicker (it should come to the front, but it doesn't) 10. looked through Places (I always go to Desktop and then 'Change Background Picture', I think it is, but when I click Desktop here it doesn't ... Well, usually I click on My Computer, but...) 11. went into Places Desktop again 12. tried Places Computer 13. tried Desktop in the sidebar again 14. tried Computer in the File Browser toolbar 15. dragged a pattern from the list to the Nautilus sidebar, which added the image to the sidebar 16. gave up. There are many design problems that need fixing here, but it was noticable in steps 5 and 7 that the Changing Backgrounds help page (a) was too long to be effective and (b) didn't even cover what the test subject was reasonably wanting to find out.

[Bug 394335] Re: Nautilus Changing Backgrounds help is tl; dr and doesn't cross-reference desktop background
Unfortunately we can't release raw videos of the tests, because one of the conditions of the subjects' participation is that we don't publish personally identifying information. However, as with other projects, I will report bugs for all the problems test participants encounter with the Ubuntu Help, when they open it while performing other tasks. We can't really test the help directly, because looking for something in the help is not itself an interesting task, so asking people to do it would produce unrealistic results. This means that the testing data on Ubuntu Help will be rather incidental and piecemeal, so you'll need to extrapolate issues with one topic to other topics. For example, the Nautilus Backgrounds help is needlessly wordy, and insensitive to possible wrong turns the user has made — but those two problems are common to many of Ubuntu's help pages, not just that one. A systematic approach to fixing those problems might use the help page structure I proposed in 2006. https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuHelp/PageStructure Now, should that wait until the Gnome user guide is rewritten? I don't see any point in waiting, unless there's going to be a license change that prevents text in the existing guide from being copied into new help pages. Otherwise, the new text could be written now, and copied into the new structure when it's ready. -- Nautilus Changing Backgrounds help is tl;dr and doesn't cross-reference desktop background https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/394335 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 391190] Re: Font size is too large by default
Mirco, to make the notification bubble text fit with the text in the rest of Gnome, Notify OSD needs to use the same DPI value as the rest of Gnome. Currently Gnome is hard-coded to 96 dpi, though that is likely to change to the Xorg-supplied value during Karmic. Notify OSD needs to keep in sync with that calculation, i.e. hard-code 96 dpi whenever Gnome is doing so.

[Bug 387573] Re: Drop-down calendar does not close unless you click on it
Nick Buchanan is correct, I think, that expected behavior would be for the calendar applet to close in the same way other drop-down applets do. However, the calendar is unlike other applets in that (as Textureglitch says) it is often useful to have it open while referring to information in other windows, which may require switching between and scrolling through those other windows. So, I suggest that the calendar have a dedicated button or menu item for opening it in a window by itself, and that once that is implemented, the drop-down calendar applet should close automatically when you click outside it. But that would be, as Bryce Harrington suggested, a feature quite a bit larger than a paper cut. And until that is implemented, I think changing the current behavior would aggravate as many people as it pleases.

[Bug 388633] Re: ComboBox has a big blank area above the position of its control
For many option menus, the items you are most likely to want to choose are those immediately before or after the currently selected one. This is true for more menus than those where you are most likely to want to change to the first item or the last item. Therefore, the most efficient behavior for an option menu is opening it so that the currently selected item is immediately under the pointer, because that results in least mouse movement and eye movement to access the previous/next items. Opening some menus this way, and some another way -- or worse, the same menu different ways depending on where the window happens to be on the screen -- would be nasty, because you could no longer rely on where the previous and next items were going to be, so you would be slower every time you used an option menu. (Indeed, we already have this problem with option menus in Firefox, Thunderbird, and OpenOffice.org, because they do not use the native GTK controls.) This placement means that sometimes there are items that you need to scroll the menu to see, even though there is initially space available above or below the currently visible items. Currently GTK does this by drawing the menu to cover the area the items would take up if you scrolled far enough. In some cases this also provides a useful hint as to how long the menu is altogether (the Language menu in Epiphany's Detailed Font Settings is a good example of this).

[Bug 356659] Re: Character reference handling for , , and doesn't match notification-daemon
Thanks for working on this, Cody. +#define CHARACTER_LT_REGEX (lt;|#60;|#x3C;) This should be (lt;|#60;|#x3C;|#x3c;) +#define CHARACTER_GT_REGEX (gt;|#62;|#x3e;) This should be (gt;|#62;|#x3E;|#x3e;) +#define CHARACTER_APOS_REGEX(apos;|#39;|#x27;) +#define CHARACTER_QUOT_REGEX(quot;|#34;|#x22;) To repeat my question from yesterday: Why are you special-casing quot; and apos;? The spec doesn't say to do that. (And why are you converting #34; and #39;, but not #40;, #41;, #42;, #43;, etc?) Do you have any evidence that applications escape or ' when sending notifications? If so, let me know, and I'll change the spec. If not, unescaped text will work more often without those conversions. +#define LINK_MATCH_REGEX a[^]*?href\\s*=\\s*[\\']?([^'\\ ]+?)['\\]?(.*?)/a +#define LINK_REPLACE_REGEX a[^]*?href\\s*=\\s*[\\']?([^'\\ ]+?)['\\]?|/a Why are you treating a elements separately from other elements? Again, that doesn't match the algorithm I provided in the spec, and I don't see any reason to do it. Please, either follow the spec or tell me why it needs changing, don't do something undocumented. +#define OTHER_MATCH_REGEX ([A-Z][A-Z0-9]*)\\b[^]*(.*?)/\\1 I'm not a regexp expert, but that \1 looks like it's not following the spec, which says to drop *any* sequence of characters that starts with / and ends with , not just those where what's between them matches a previous tag. Is your aim here to reduce unwanted tag-swallowing, on the grounds that foo/i malfunctions in notification-daemon anyway? That could be nifty, though it would be harder to specify and implement in a non-regexp way. (Unless, or maybe even if, the Desktop Notifications Specification 1.0 totally redoes the body text format, the guessing algorithm probably should be included in that spec for all servers to implement.) -- Character reference handling for , , and doesn't match notification-daemon https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/356659 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
