pynotify question

[NikitaUtiu]

I have been recently working on a project using pynotify. I want to know if there is any way to set the time the notification is visible ?

n = pynotify.Notification ("blah blah", "blah blah")
# for example

And any member function or something to set the amount of time the notification on befor it closes?
P.S. Using Ubuntu (GNOME)

After initializing your notification object (like you did), use:


n.set_timeout(10000)

time is in milliseconds.

You may also be interested in experimenting with the following:

Set urgency:

n.set_urgency(pynotify.URGENCY_LOW)
n.set_urgency(pynotify.URGENCY_NORMAL)
n.set_urgency(pynotify.URGENCY_CRITICAL)


Set icon:

icon = helper.render_icon(gtk.STOCK_DIALOG_QUESTION, gtk.ICON_SIZE_DIALOG)
n.set_icon_from_pixbuf(icon)


The pynotify api documentation is close to non-existent. I ran through similar problems a few weeks ago. Good Luck :)
