Notifications

Details regarding desktop notifications.

Regolith 1.3 introduces the integration of Rofication into the environment. Previous versions relied on a built-in notification system within gnome-flashback but the UI was distracting. Rofication relies on a notification daemon and Rofi-based front end. A block in the bar shows the number of notifications the user has. When a new notification is received, this number is incremented by one. There is no other alert or other UI that would notify the user of the new message. If a more agressive notification UI is desired, dunst is recommended.

Managing Notifications

Next to the bell icon in the bar is the current number of notifications. To view and delete them, select super n and a menu will load. Notifications can be read and then deleted with delete and the notification window can be dismissed with escape. All low-priority notifications can be deleted at once with shift delete from within the notification menu.
