Description KDE Brainstorm Submissions 2010-08-11 02:01:34 UTC

I was thinking about something : sometime, while you're playing videogames or watching a movie, you certainly don't want to get annoyed by notification.
Well, we actually have nothing to protect ourselves against someone starting a chat in Kopete, or against an update notification... if we don't close Kopete or kill the update notifier... which is not the best solution.

What if with a right click in the notification area you could just ask the notifier to "hold" the notification but not to show it.
So when you doesn't want to get annoyed, you click that and when a notification is generated, it stays stucks in the notifier, just as if the timer already expired ?

And what if (even better) that option could activate itself using the same stuff than screensavers to know if the user want to get notification or not : so at the very moment you start watching a movie, the notifier hides itself ?


This feature request was originally submitted through KDE Brainstorm, and has been submitted to Bugzilla due to popular demand. Original idea: http://forum.kde.org/brainstorm.php?mode=idea&i=84798

Reproducible: Didn't try

Testing with 4.9, when you have an application running in full-screen mode, the notification popup does not get shown.
Therefore, I think this is exactly what you are looking for and close this entry.
