    Question Notifications pop-up seems misplaced in desktop

    Hi, I think the notification pop-up is misplaced in my desktop because it shows way down the main top panel.

    I would like to know if any other user have this same issue, if by chance there isn't any issue at all and this is the correct behaviour and, finally, if anybody knows any way to set the coordinates X,Y where the notification pop-up should appear.

    I add a screenshot as example, please forgive the mess of the desktop

    Any suggestion welcomed, thanks!

    It was put there so people can hit the close/min/max buttons without dismissing the dialog.

    Hi guys,

    @wojox: not it isn't because when you mouse over the pop-up it will fade AND let you see what's behind it and even interact with anything there's there, call it a windows frame, a file in you desktop of so.

    @emigrant: I'm starting to think if it could see a Emerald issue. Please confirm you're using Emerald.

    Best.

    What about those of us who don't use compiz and it doesn't fade?

    Unhappy Re: Notifications pop-up seems misplaced in desktop

    So, Emerald is out of question.

    I wonder now why of it's behaviour, in all the KK screenshots I see the notification pop-up is well up next to the panel.

    Would be *great* to have a way to edit where the notification will appear.

    The sky above the port was the color of television, tuned to a dead channel.

    As bluelamp pointed out, there is a work-around to revert to the old position, but the Karmic notifications are definitely there by design: http://www.mail-archive.com/ayatana@.../msg00742.html

    I personally dislike the new location, but I'm not fussy enough to bother with the work-around.
