Re: How does gnome-shell handle urgent windows?

Hi Milan,

AFAIK, in GNOME2 when the window asked for user attention, the panel

made it blink until clicked. No idea what Windows does in that regard.

It works exactly the same way. It's basically the same as Gnome2's panel.

 

In the Shell, the notification is shown only once for a few seconds, but
it will stay in the messaging bar as long as the window isn't focused.
And that bar is automatically shown when you return from idle, which
should be OK for your use case.

Oh, I didn't know the notification bar waited until you came back. That's a good detail.
