[Bug 331564] Re: sometimes notification flickers when fading in
I had this flicker problem when the bubble faded OUT, never in. As suggested, I checked my Jaunty RC Compiz fade settings and noticed that an exception for notify-osd was in the Open category for the Compiz Animations plugin, but not for the Close category, so I copied and pasted the exclusion and now bubbles fade out without flicker, but now they flicker when fading in!! I removed the addition to the Close category and the fade out now flickers again, but the fade in is still flickering.

I still see this behavior with the latest compiz version and the notify- osd exception for the fade plugin. It even happens if I disable all fading-related options for the fade plugin.

[Bug 331564] Re: sometimes notification flickers when fading in
While this is not really directly a bug of notify-osd I kept the filed bug valid and handed needed fixes for compiz and compiz-fusion-plugins- main to mvo, who maintains compiz and plugins in the ubuntu repository. So within a few hours (or days) fixes for compiz and compiz-fusion- plugins-main will come with the usual updates. The plugins in question are animation (the open- and close-effects) and fade. Both now have an extended default match-rule to _not_ touch windows with the title notify-osd. For the curious among you the match-rule to add looks like this: !(title=notify-osd) ** Changed in: compiz (Ubuntu Jaunty) Status: New = Fix Committed -- sometimes notification flickers when fading in https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/331564 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs

[Bug 331564] Re: sometimes notification flickers when fading in
The fade-in/out animations of the notification-bubbles rendered by notify-osd are indeed explicitly controlled by notify-osd. This way it works under compiz and metacity in the same way, is predictable for the user (from a user-interaction point-of-view) and can be fine-tuned to match all possible corner-cases (from the designers point-of-view). Another fact to note is that some people might have the animation-pluing disabled. What should we do in that case? Relying on external components, apart from desktop-compositing, is not a good idea. This would make implementing the notification spec even harder. -- sometimes notification flickers when fading in https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/331564 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-b...@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs -- universe-bugs mailing list universe-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/universe-bugs
Re: [Bug 331564] Re: sometimes notification flickers when fading in
Ok, I understand your points, but I would have preferred the other way because: - no code duplication - the notification are better integrated into the compositing animations (so they follow the configuration of animations) If a user chooses metacity instead of compiz, this means (maybe?) that he wants less animations. And so is if he disables the compiz animation plugin. This is my point of view.

The only thing I can think of is that you might be running with an enabled fade-plugin (for compiz). That does not yet include an exception match-rule for notify-osd.
