Public bug reported: There is no method for users to dispel notifications.
Current behaviour: when the user hovers the mouse over the notification it blurs. This serves no useful purpose * the notification is blurred, so it is not readable, it is sufficiently opaque to make it a nuisance, It conflicts with the original spec of "pausing the notification" (https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/notify-osd/+bug/796596) By changing the nature of the notification to include any method of dispelling the notification (hotkey, clickable notifications, button on notification bar), users are not held hostage to the time out. Disabling notifications or changing the time out globally is NOT a solution. requirements of fix: *disable blurring of notifications *add method of dispelling notifications that ALSO works for fullscreen apps. The code for a closable notification already exists in "ppa:leolik/leolik" ** Affects: notify-osd (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1205660 Title: Users cannot dispel notifications if they are disrupting work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/notify-osd/+bug/1205660/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
