  1. Specify screen per registered application/event

    Title describes the request and hopefully it should be fairly do-able considering Snarl's already got this covered through the main interface as a global option

    • Always on top option

      Currently when I play a game or watch a movie the notifications do not show through. I would like the option to have Snarl appear at all times.

          • Weather notification

            It would be neat to have a weather notification plug in that would show the forecast and current temperature for user-selected cities.

            • Intercept any standard Windows popup messages and use Snarl to display them

              Currently, many applications still use the standard Windows popup messages. Is it possible to intercept these and use Snarl to display them instead? I did find one add-on to do this, but it was unstable and did not support the click events from the original pop-up

                • Increase the max string length?

                  I wanted to use Snarl as a quick and dirty method to output some error logging when something bad happend in a server but my string is too long. Is there a way to increase this by the API?

                                          At present, notification can be placed only in the corners of the screen. I think it would be good to add another positions:
                                          Screen center
                                          Top center
                                          Bottom center
                                          Left center
                                          Right center

                                            After more consideration, I think there is a way for notifications to begin at the centre of the screen. More work will need to be done, however. Marking as planned for R2.8 or later.
