Hi Paul -- There is still an issue at hand, but there is not the problem as exhibited in Dapper with the more recent Feisty. Allow me to explain...
In Dapper, the bubble pop-ups were in cartoon-dialogue style. As a result, the bottom of the box came to a point, which from a UX perspective, one expects to point to the item which is requesting attention or providing output to the user. This did not happen in the old version. The new versions of these notifications use rounded rectangles. The advantage is that such messages don't imply directionality as far as the icon which is providing output. However, the hidden panel still rises behind the bubble notification. It seems that in almost every situation, this is not the expected ordering, especially given the "always-on-top" nature of panels relative to non full-screen windows. This is obviously a low-priority bug, and there may be nothing for Ubuntu to do with it at this point. However, I do still feel the interaction between the notification and a panel with auto-hide is less than desirable. I won't be offended if this is resolved as won't fix -- but I wanted to at least bring it to the attention of devs. Thanks for the follow-up, and thanks for your work, as well! -- Notification bubble + autohide panel = bad notification https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/46603 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is a direct subscriber. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
