Feature request - Sticky notifications about arttime HOT 3 CLOSED

Solved, thank you!

from arttime.

@skamsie Am glad you like it. It's been improving everyday, and more features are on the way. Make sure to keep it updated. Yes! there is a way to do what you intend. Its already listed in the Troubleshooting section of arttime's README.md. Am copying it here for your reference:

• Notifications for arttime do not stay for long time on macOS?
  • This setting cannot be controlled by arttime. You will have to do this 1 time change in your computer: Open System Preferences > Select Notifications & Focus > Scroll to Script Editor > Change "Script editor alert style" to "Alerts". Make sure "Allow Notifications" is selected. Additionally check the combination of boxes based on your preferences.

This will change behavior of notifications generated by all apple scripts on your computer. It seems like there is no native macOS interface like Linux to change this behavior on per notification basis. This 1 time change should not affect the behavior of notifications from other apps. Screenshot below shows how I have configured AppleScript notifications. Maybe in future macOS will add a native way to control notification time on per notification basis.

Note: One might also want to tick "When display is sleeping", though I haven't tested with or without it. Probably it covers the case when display is sleeping but system is not.

A related setting needs change if notifications do not always appear (due to focus settings). I just added this bullet to the Troubleshooting section of documentation.

• Notification don't always appear on macOS, example: during a Zoom call?
  • If notifications sometime appear and sometime do not, this is because of macOS "Focus"/"Do not disturb" settings. You will have to do this one time change on your computer: Open System Preferences > Select Notifications & Focus > Select Focus tab > Choose profile "Do not disturb" > In "Allowed notifications from" box select "Apps" tab then press + (i.e. plus) > Search and select "Script Editor" > Press Add. You might have to repeat this process for all focus profiles you use in addition to "Do not disturb".
