I'm glad to announce this new release of xfce4-notifyd which ships mostly bug fixes and code cleanups. Theming has also been improved with additional style properties and drawing fixes. Xfce4-notifyd themes may need to be updated to take advantage of those new style properties and to adapt to the theming changes. Sorry for the inconvenience.
Thanks a lot to all the persons who contributed to this release and kept me motivated! This is the result of your work!
Changelog
libnotify is now required as a dependency to build a test suite and to show improved notification previews.
Features
- Add a category to the settings dialog for Xfce4 Settings Manager.
- Add widget names to summary ("summary") and body ("body") widgets to allow easier theming. Remove the redundant / buggy summary-bold style property (bug #8431). Themes will have to be updated accordingly.
Bugs fixed
- Fix notifications not disappearing after clicking an action button.
- Handle timeout correctly when smaller than fading time (bug #8580).
- Avoid flickering of the notifications.
- Accept uri of images in icon_name parameter.
- Parse body with g_markup_escape_text which allows us to handle span attributes misused by some clients and to parse strings with "unusual" characters such as & (bug #7773, #8187).
- Respect border-width when drawing the notification (bug #9475).
- Do not kill notification daemon to apply new theme. Instead, handle style updates of existing notifications.
- Show a button in the notification preview (bug #9982).
- Add an icon to the notification preview.
