A compromise: How about it detects when the toast is pressed, and if it is, stops showing the toasts
When would the toast next be displayed? ![:p](images/smilies/msn_tongue.gif)
Hmm, didn't think of that one ![:P](images/smilies/msn_tongue.gif)
Hi and thanks for your input
I've come up with a solution , of a bogus sort ,what happens is that it displays the toast only once, and doesnt display it while it read that there are still NEW <whatever triggerd the toast> , so for instance if NEW messages triggered it NEW comments will still trigger it.
Now heres the clever part , it keeps the toasts untriggered while the NEW <whatever> message is recieved (indicating that they havent been seen) , BUT if it gets no NEW <whatever> following a s NEW <whatever> (indicating its been seen) it resets itself , so that the next NEW will trigger an event.
HOWEVER for this means that the Notifier might miss NEW notifications if a new message is sent within a minute as thats the fequency it polls at, if you read a message and replied and got a reply in less than a minute (very possible) it would think the new reply and the coresponding NEW <message>was just the old NEW notifier. This goes for All the notifiers
THis meand the user might not be notified of events , which was the whole point really. Maybe I could implement this as an option with a warning of low accuracy of reporting things happening within a minute , or frequency of each other?
