+1 (for the above comment) It's also hugely misleading. I followed documentation, and spent a fair amount of time trying to get it to work before coming across this thread.
Can you either: a) Fix the documentation and remove that we can change the timeout b) Make the notification timeout override-able. b is would be preferable. As mentioned above I can't see why you would want to restrict it. Some applications, if posting a warning or error for example, may want the notification to show for a little longer in case the user misses it. -- notify-send ignores the expire timeout parameter https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/390508 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
