Because you aren't supposed to dismiss it. The notifications are supposed to be sufficiently out of the way that they do not interrupt your workflow. You just leave them there. If you /need/ to access something behind them, e.g. a toolbar button or something, then they allow you to see and interact with the rest of your UI that is underneath them, again without interrupting you. -- Scott Armitage, B.A.Sc., M.A.Sc. candidate Space Flight Laboratory University of Toronto Institute for Aerospace Studies 4925 Dufferin Street, Toronto, Ontario, Canada, M3H 5T6 -- Notifications should show up closer to top right https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/438536 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
