Yes, Joshua, this would be exactly the way it was supposed to look like. Maybe I'll sort this out tomorrow, thanks for the tip! Rolf Joshua Higgins schrieb: > I know its not the gambas way, but if you have a notification-daemon and > dbus running, install the package libnotify-bin. Then you can

Hi Toni, I found the description, but it won't be found by Gambas here. Do I have to do more than activating gb.form in the components list to get it? Thanks for your help. Rolf Toni schrieb: > Hi Rolf again, > By ballon I meant "gb.form.ballon", a Message like class. > I couldn't get it poin

Hi everyone out there... The question is simple: Is it possible to make a small window without any gadgets appear and disappear after some seconds showing a small hint such as "you got new messages..."? What I want is something like these hints Thunderbird or the Suse update client produce at
