Indeed, I can imagine a case of private messages popping up when you're doing a presentation. It should be possible to quickly get rid of them in such a case. > To handle these cases, can't we allow manual closing of the notifications > (say by clicking it) while still retaining the time-out based closing to > ensure that the user can still ignore it without any difference? This doesn't work, because part of the design is that you must be able to click behind the notification. A better solution would be to instantly remove the notification if you closed the chat window or the application, or changed your status to busy/invisible/offline. -- Remco -- Ubuntu-devel-discuss mailing list Ubuntu-devel-discuss@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-devel-discuss
