At an intuitive level can we say that when dropdowns or context menus are opened, the user is typically doing something short and that requires focus (such as filling in a form or selecting a menu entry) and then it is better not to interrupt the user in that precise moment? I see that when I am chosing a menu entry I wouldn't normally move my eyes to look at a notification. Do you have pointers to some document by these research groups? thanks Vincenzo _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~ayatana Post to : ayatana@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~ayatana More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
