Actually, what I notice is there is a temporary pop-up in the lower right corner of my desktop, but it only shows for a few seconds before going away. From that point, I see the Evolution notification icon in the notification area of my panel. When I left-click this, THEN the Appointments window pops up on my screen permanently (until I close it manually). Which pop up window are you refering to, the temporary one in the lower right corner, or the one that says Appointments in the top panel and stays until manually dismissed? -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Can-calendar-reminders-be-made-persistent--tp18317635p18392191.html Sent from the Gnome Evolution - General mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Evolution-list mailing list Evolution-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/evolution-list
