The messaging menu doesn't know the difference between a temporary and a permanent notification. Applications can specifiy which source items should highlight the indicator.
So, if we went with suggestion (1), this is a bug in telepathy- indicator, which should probably only highlight the messaging menu when somebody sends a message directly to you. (Personally, I think "went online" notifications shouldn't be in the messaging menu in the first place.) I don't understand why suggestion (2) would be an improvement: if you want the highlight to be different for temporary notifications just so that you can ignore them, wouldn't it make more sense to not show the "temporary hightlight" at all? ** Project changed: indicator-messages => telepathy-indicator -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/612565 Title: Cannot distinguish between temporary messaging-menu highlight and permanent highlight To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/telepathy-indicator/+bug/612565/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
