elliotslab commented 10 years ago

Any way to have the notification even when that chat windows is on focus?

hhaidar commented 10 years ago

Can you give me an example of a use case for this?

elliotslab commented 10 years ago

In systems with multiple computers if you are using another pc and the chat windows if focus in the other one there's no hint that a new message arrive

In my case I trade stocks on one pc and make my main tasks on another pc, because the trading software take the whole monitor I cannot have the chat in the same pc

hah, that's actually pretty neat! I can't make promises on this feature, but maybe someone can do a PR.

One thing you can do for the time being is open a second minimized tab or window.
