| David_M | Does this system support snaps and flatpaks? Can I use latest XFCE? | 11:57 |
| brainwash | David_M: both systems are available, but Xfce is not packaged this way | 12:18 |
| brainwash | David_M: for latest packages you can use the Xubuntu PPAs https://launchpad.net/~xubuntu-dev | 12:20 |
| David_M | Why are window control buttons so small? | 12:22 |
| knome | huh, on my 18.04 after the last updates xfsettinds went somehow crazy and created a loop that hogged down all of my resources | 12:57 |
| al3xprey | how can I add notification badges to docky? | 12:57 |
| al3xprey | if they are not present natively | 12:57 |
| knome | ochosi, was that known? | 12:57 |
| al3xprey | hey | 12:59 |
| knome | hello. | 12:59 |
| al3xprey | what's up | 12:59 |
| knome | well, see above, or for non-support-related chat, #xubuntu-offtopic | 13:00 |
| al3xprey | how about my docky question? | 13:01 |
| knome | i don't use docky, so i have no idea, sorry | 13:01 |
| al3xprey | :( | 13:02 |
| knome | since it's not shipped by default on xubuntu, it might mean this is the case for majority of people here | 13:02 |
| al3xprey | ok then, the default xubuntu dock does not include notification badges either | 13:02 |
| al3xprey | if they are not natively supported | 13:02 |
| al3xprey | how can this be added to the dock | 13:02 |
| knome | witty, but i don't know that either. | 13:03 |
| diogenes_ | al3xprey, try cairo-dock instead | 13:03 |
| al3xprey | cairo-dock didn't have the notification support either | 13:04 |
| al3xprey | awn included | 13:04 |
| diogenes_ | afaik cairo used to have some options about notifications | 13:04 |
| knome | so since none of the docks you have tried support those notification badges, maybe it's not possible to have them then? | 13:04 |
| diogenes_ | it was long time since i tried it | 13:04 |
| knome | or is there a dock/panel that supports those (and with which they actually work)? | 13:04 |
| al3xprey | nah I was wondering if I can ADD them, since for example Thunderbird has notification badges | 13:05 |
| al3xprey | on either dock | 13:05 |
| al3xprey | no plugins in thunderbird | 13:05 |
| al3xprey | it just works | 13:05 |
| knome | i imagine it would mean you would need to add the code to the software | 13:05 |
| diogenes_ | al3xprey, ask thunderbird devs about their secret trick :) | 13:05 |
| al3xprey | yes I just wanted to find someone with experience that has done it | 13:05 |
| al3xprey | since I couldnt find info in the lists | 13:06 |
| al3xprey | haha, it's some kind of native notification support | 13:06 |
| knome | if they had done it for $software, then i'm pretty sure that code would be included in them already, and you would have the feature | 13:06 |
| knome | it would be sane if they didn't share such code. | 13:06 |
| knome | it would be *insane* | 13:06 |
| knome | is what i meant... | 13:06 |
| knome | out of curiosity, which software lacks the notification support? | 13:07 |
| al3xprey | Messenger, Slack (has a really stupid notification tray icon in linux), Skype, HexChat as I am using it atm | 13:08 |
| al3xprey | the windows indicate that there is some kind of an event | 13:09 |
| al3xprey | but the dock icon has no badges | 13:09 |
| knome | this is indeed something the software developers should take care of | 13:09 |
| knome | it's also impossible for anybody else to do that if the software is closed source, like i imagine slack, skype and messenger being | 13:10 |
| al3xprey | not entirely, the messenger app is mostly built on electron | 13:11 |
| al3xprey | take it as a browser window with only facebook messenger and SOME code | 13:11 |
| al3xprey | for things like | 13:11 |
| al3xprey | ***DRUM ROLL**** | 13:11 |
| al3xprey | notifications. | 13:11 |
| diogenes_ | al3xprey, you can create your own app with nativefier and with the argument --tray /path/to/image/png, and tehre you have it | 13:13 |
