Applications that wish to pop up a notification bubble in a 1.7 +standard way can implicitly make use of xfce4-notifyd to do so by sending 1.8 +standard messages over D-Bus using the org.freedesktop.Notifications interface. 1.9 + 1.10 +It's recommended use xfce4-notifyd with a compositing manager running; in that 1.11 +case xfce4-notifyd will look a bit nicer and will be semi-transparent and will 1.12 +fade out, and other nice pretty things. This isn't required by any means, of 1.13 +course. 1.14 + 1.15 + 1.16 +Configuration: 1.17 + 1.18 +Run xfce4-notifyd-config to display the settings dialog. There aren't any other 1.19 +tunables; if you don't see it in the settings dialog, it's not changeable. 1.20 + 1.21 + 1.22 +Theming: 1.23 + 1.24 +Xfce4-notifyd uses gtk's standard theming system. You can create new themes by 1.25 +creating a normal gtkrc file. See the example included themes for details of 1.26 +how to reference the various widgets present in a normal notification dialog. 1.27 +You'll want to put your gtkrc file in $HOME/.themes/THEMENAME/xfce4-notify-4.0 1.28 +and then start up the configuration dialog to set the theme. If you think 1.29 +you've come up with a cool theme, feel free to send it to the author, and he'll 1.30 +be happy to include it in the next release. For themes shipped with 1.31 +xfce4-notifyd, author requires all parts of them to be redistributable under 1.32 +the terms of a license compatible with the GPLv2.
