Description Mathias Brodala 2007-01-26 11:17:20 CET
User-Agent:       Opera/9.10 (X11; Linux i686; U; de)
Build Identifier: 

Please add libnotify support to Orage’s notification system, or provide a way to pass information about an event to an external application. (Which could then be notify-send from libnotify.)

Reproducible: Always

Yes, will do.

The reason why this actually does not exist yet is that if you specify also the
sound, this kind of external notification can not stop the sound. Orage default
visual window has the stop button, but I doubt that can be done with libnorify.

Anyway, will search what is possible and add this. I like those notifications
myself and was already planning this, but stopped implementation for the resons
described....

Whoops, didn’t see that on the page for new reports. Thanks.

Well, you could not see it since Brian just added it.
And moved all old Bugs to the new product ;)

You can connect a 'destroy' signal to a notification, this signal is triggered when the notification is destroyed or when the user closes the notification. You can find an example in the settings application in the notification-daemon-xfce (ignore the dbus code, this is to update the daemon after a position change, not needed in your case).
