[Bug 550566] Re: Full-screen window prevents notification on other workspaces or monitors

 

I confirm that the bug still exists, Ubuntu Mate 18.04, dual monitor
set-up (pc screen + projector screen via HDMI). Notify-send + notify-osd
works perfectly when no window is in full screen mode (F11), doesn't
work nor on primary or secondary when there is a full screen window
opened (doesn't matter if is on the primary or the secondary display).

Title:
  Full-screen window prevents notification on other workspaces or
  monitors

Status in notify-osd package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: notify-osd

  I've tested this with both Evince and Firefox.

  I have an application open in full screen mode.
  I switch to another workspace.
  I run "notify-send" and no notification pops up. I am sad.
  I take the application out of full screen mode and try again.
  A notification pops up. I am happy.
  I try again...
  I take the application out of full screen mode immediately after requesting the notification.
  The notification does not appear. I am sad.

  Mostly, I am sad...
