Place new notifications on the active screen #122

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
What feature or enhancement do you propose?
Growl should put (or have an option to put) new notification windows on the 
screen with the mouse 
cursor on it, not a specific screen selected ahead of time.

What problem does it solve/What benefit does it provide?
The user may be concentrating on a single thing on a single screen, to the 
exclusion of any other 
screens; if the screen they're working on is not the main-menu screen, they may 
not see 
notifications.

In addition to or in lieu of the mouse cursor location, it could look at which 
window has the current focus.

I spend most of my time in a full-screen terminal on one monitor with the mouse 
cursor in the other but I do jump around, from time to time.

How exactly do you know which screen I'm looking at if I have 5 screens? :)

It isn't the screen you're physically looking at. It's the screen you'd have 
focus in (e.g. the window or browser that is currently selected) or 
mouse/cursor location. From that it would just be assumed since most people 
look at the screen they are manipulating.

If you have 5 screens then you'd probably not want to enable a feature like 
this... since I'm thinking it would be an option.

+1 to this, since I am using Xcode in full screen mode and I miss all growl 
notifications while coding,

I'd like to see this too because I have 3 monitors wide and I can't see the 
notifications half of the time. An example of the implementation I would like 
to see is in Witch by ManyTricks, where you can have a popup window appear 
always on one screen or on the screen that your mouse is on.

Let's talk about this for the next feature release.
