jga23 Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 It would be nice to have the option to have the notification center popup stay open until it's clicked. In addition, it would be nice to be able to run a custom script when the notification popup is clicked. Thoughts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Eich Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 If I remember correctly, Notification Center doesn't offer that kind of control on a per-notification basis. You can set all Alfred's notifications to be 'Alerts' instead of 'Banners'; then you will have to manually dismiss every notification. Growl, on the other hand, is VERY customizable and offers a 'sticky' setting for each message. I would also love it if Alfred launched a script on clicking a notification (Growl or NC). For Growl, even a simple URL callback would be great Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jdfwarrior Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 I believe Tyler is correct. I don't think you have that kind of control over Notifications. With Growl though, you can specify these types of settings. I'm not sure of how it works with the new Workflows setup. I don't know if you can set a specific Workflow to display differently than others or not. Growlnotify (command line Growl) will allow you to set things like this though. This would only be helpful if you are looking to do this with a Workflow where you could manually call Growl. The documentation on their site doesn't indicate that Growlnotify supports callbacks yet but I'm pretty sure that it could be done with Applescript if you wanted to go that route.

Andrew Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 In Alfred, if you set a notification output object to specifically be "Growl", then you can set it up to be sticky per output object. Using growl gives you much more control over the output. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good chance that something like this will happen at some point during v2.x jga23 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CarlosNZ Posted February 9, 2013 Share Posted February 9, 2013 any plans on adding ability to run a script after it's been clicked? Growl (using Applescript) and growlnotify can specify a URL to action on click, though not a script or system command. If you managed to set up a custom URL scheme, though....
