[Question] notify is pretty aggressive with every action. #169

Firstly, I really liked the plugin and thanks for your efforts.

I'm new to lua so I have some issues that I'm not been able to tackle and I appreciate any help.

  1. I need to reduce the amount that the notification stays on screen (I changed the timeout to 500 and still the notification stays a long time on screen. I've read the docs but didn't able to solve the issue)
  2. too many notifications. (I want to disable some basic notifications to be pushed to notify)

Code I'm using is below for timeout: For the number of notifications: I noticed that notify is sending me a lot of notifications about things shouldn't be always pushed to notify like:

  1. yanked lines. (I set vim.opt.report to high number to get rid of these notification but other things I couldn't do much)
  2. pasted lines
  3. changes made
  4. fewer lines
  5. etc.. I think below gif describe what I'm taking about.

I'm not sure if this is the default behavior or not.

Thank again

The timeout is how long the notification stays once it has reached the timed stage so just set the timeout to something like 50 to be very quick. Or use the static stages. More details here https://github.com/rcarriga/nvim-notify#changing-the-window

nvim-notify doesn't send any notifications itself, only plugins that use it. What you're seeing is noice.nvim taking over the output of commands like :echo so you have to change your noice config to prevent that by disabling messages

    messages = {
      enabled = false, -- enables the Noice messages UI
    }

Oh thank you for your answer. I didn't know that noice is doing all of that. the static stages is really helpful and indeed it feels that timeout is less.

Yet disabling the messages in noice didn't work correctly, because If I set it, it disable all other features that I have set. (I don't why) but that's a different story related to noice which I probably delete since it has a loooooot of details in the documentations hahaha and I don't wanna go into a rabbit hole.

Thanks again for the help
