*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 893196 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/893196 @ Christopher Townsend, I see that, but I'm not sure how it's fixed, unless I am totally misunderstanding something. Based on the bug report you linked me, it suggests that this is regarding the Unity bar being hidden. I don't have my Unity bar hidden. My Unity bar is always visible. My issue is this. I just received a Skype message. The icon wiggled. Had I not seen it wiggle, it would have just sat there with a highlight. Ironically enough, the highlight is offset, making it very difficult to see, which is frustrating given it's the only way to tell that Skype needs attention if I miss the wiggle. (highlight issue is currently bug #1309739, but I see you're working on that - thanks!) If I let the Skype notification just sit there, it never wiggles again. What I don't understand is why it doesn't wiggle again. Why doesn't it re-notify me? This wiggling one time only thing doesn't really align with design logic. People are busy. People multitask. People will miss that one second it happens to wiggle quite frequently. Some sort of reoccuring notification until the user gives that application attention is basically what I am referencing. Am I missing something, or is this option here and I just not know about it? -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/776745 Title: Unity's sidebar 'Urgent' icon animation not constant To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/776745/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

*** This bug is a duplicate of bug 893196 *** https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/893196 @jasauders, Ah, ok, so your Launcher is not hidden, but you'd like the icon to continue to wiggle to get your attention. Now reading this particular bug description again after your explanation, I don't really see how this is a duplicate of the other bug since the other bug is specifically about a hidden Launcher. I can't speak 100% for Design, but I think the reasoning here is that the icon continues to glow to indicate to the user that there is something "special" going on with the icon, but I do see your point and having a moving visual clue may be helpful. I think the best course of action here is to open a new bug report since this bug is now too tightly lumped in with the other bug. I'll keep an eye out for your new bug report and subscribe Design so they can have a look.

[Bug 776745] Re: Unity's sidebar 'Urgent' icon animation not constant
I confirm, this is a regression bug in my opinion, since the behaviour of gnome-panel was correct (in previous versions of ubuntu). Now that it was replaced by the unity panel, the urgent animation lasts only e few seconds and then stops. The icon should shake untill the window becomes active. Let's say, to be more detailed, that as long as the little arrow is blue, the wiggle animation should repeat after completion. That's just a loop to add, doesn't need new design. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/776745 Title: Unity's sidebar 'Urgent' icon animation not constant To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ayatana-design/+bug/776745/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

There could also exist an option for icons from "urgent" applications to wiggle every X seconds or minutes until the user clicks them.

[Bug 776745] Re: Unity's sidebar 'Urgent' icon animation not constant
I agree, I'm using Unity at work with 3 monitors, the monitor that has the unity bar is 24", if I'm not looking at that monitor and more specifically the left side of the monitor when that first wiggle happens, I will go quite a while before noticing that I got a text message. Without leaving my desk I've had messages go unnoticed for 30 minutes. Without a resolution to this I am going to be forced to leave Unity which would be unfortunate as this is the only thing that I don't like about it so far. It is however a deal breaker as IM is used for work purposes here and I can't ignore someone for 30 minutes. CCSM should at least allow the user to cause the wiggle to happen until the window gains focus. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/776745 Title: Unity's sidebar 'Urgent' icon animation not constant -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Having roughly 250 pixels (indicator and launcher triangle) out of 2,304,000 pixels (1920*1200 resolution) be a different color than they normally are isn't enough to draw your attention to them unless you happen to be looking in their general area as they change color. Add an additional monitor or two to your setup and it's even more difficult to notice the change. The shake animation is already in place, having an option to make it play until the user acknowledges the window would be the easiest fix and a good one at that. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/776745 Title: Unity's sidebar 'Urgent' icon animation not constant -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
