Hey Mirco, I actually think the hardest part of implementing this would be the configuration backend (I am assuming it won't be gconf because we are trying to stay desktop-agnostic?).
1. How is the case different today? The user could have some extreme and weird system settings that in turn would bring unexpected results. The edge cases will remain the same. 2 & 3. IMHO, these questions could be delayed indefinitely, it is probably a bad idea to provide a UI for these settings. But I wonder what MPT would say. 4. For a good user experience, yes. But a highly motivated user, who really needs this, will dig into a UI-less config backend, change settings and log in and out as often as needed until they are happy. I am exaggerating a bit. Consider this: Vinux (http://vinux.org.uk) is a modified version of Ubuntu optimized for visually impaired users. I haven't gave their ISO a spin yet, but I imagine the default settings are high-contrast and large fonts. When packaging notify-osd, they are going to have to look for a visual sweet-spot that radically differs from vanilla Ubuntu. If they could easily change this without intrusive patches it would be good. -- Consider ability to change libnotify-osd font size? https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/335383 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
