The patched NotifyOSD, which adds support for changing the notification bubble position on the screen, change font size, colour and many other settings, has been updated for Ubuntu 12.04 Precise Pangolin.

change font and background colours, opacity, size, corner radius

change the timeout (only works if an application specifies the timeout)

change the position on the screen (move it to the bottom right, top left, etc.)

switch between dynamic (no gap between the top panel and the notification bubbles) and fixed positioning

disable fade out

close the notifications on click

enable/disable "use Dash background colour for the notification bubbles"

more

I've also updated the NotifyOSDConfig utility that is available in the WebUpd8 main PPA, which can be used to configure the patched NotifyOSD, to support some of the options that were missing like bubbles fade out, close bubble on click (thanks to Marco Gundermann for implementing these into NotifyOSDConfig) as well as an option to disable using Dash colour for the notification bubbles. Setting the notification position hasn't been integrated into NotifyOSDConfig so you still need to use Dconf for this.





Below you can watch a video with the latest patched NotifyOSD and NotifyOSDConfig with Marco Gundermann's patch as well as a small patch from me:

Install the patched NotifyOSD and NotifyOSDConfig in Ubuntu 12.04

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:leolik/leolik sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade sudo apt-get install libnotify-bin pkill notify-osd

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:nilarimogard/webupd8 sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get install notifyosdconfig

NotifyOSDConfig doesn't come with settings for moving the notification bubbles, so you must do this manually, by using the command below:

gsettings set com.canonical.notify-osd gravity [number]

1 - top-right corner 2 - middle-right 3 - bottom-right corner 4 - bottom-left corner 5 - middle-left 6 - top-left corner

As usual, thanks to Leolik for maintaining the patched NotifyOSD in his PPA!
