Gnome 3.2 notification bar behaviour

in gnome 3.0, the notification bar was always placed on the primary display. which was nice (the secondary display acting as an empty screen).
in gnome 3.2 the notification bar is placed on the bottom of the virtual desktop. which actually ruins the whole experience in my case.
especially since the popup windows appear offscreen (secondary display resolution is smaller than primary display).
is it possible to have the notification bar back on the primary screen?

I have exactly the same problem when I switched form gnome 3.0 to 3.2. I'm using nvidias drivers with twinview for dual monitoring. Is there already a possible fix for this?

  • Gnome 3.8.1 notification bar "permanent"? [problem solved]

    Hi there!
    Every update of gnome shell bring some pain to me (and this old desktop pc).
    I noticed in the 3.8.1 version the notifications are gone. After googling it, I found out that Super+M shows a notification bar.
    Is it possible to keep it "permanent" like in previous versions? I searched for such this option in settings but I didn't find anything..
    Btw, this gnome shell version crashes often. I really hope in a *better* future.
    My best,
    MJ

    Oops, I didn't know I could just move the mouse against the bottom of the screen.
    By "permanent" I meant the previous behavior, when the notification bbar was "sticked" in the "shell view" (mhh, when you press <Super>).

    I have already installed xfce4, just need some spare time to set it up as I like my desktop enviroment.
    Could try also gnome fallback, thanks.

  • Curve 9360 Notification Bar

    Hi,
    I'm new to the blackberry world!  I just got the Curve 9360 and used to have a notification bar under the time and date.  It displayed any notifications (text, bbm, email, facebook etc..) also a search bar, and the volume button.  not sure how I did this but it's gone,  can anyone help?  how do I re-add this bar.  It's a pain having to go into all the menus to see where the notification are and changing the volume etc...
    THANKS!

    Solved!

    Will you do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot. A reboot in this manner is prescribed for most glitches and operating system errors, and you will lose no data on the device doing this.
    After rebooted, let me know what you see on your homescreen?
    If it remains the same with this notification bar missing, could you please post a screenshot here?

  • Is there a way to have the Notification bar in the Beta 7 build?

    My version of the Beta just upgraded to the beta 7 build and with it, it took away the Notification bar, as well as the ability to restore it. A friend of mine suggested to search for an add-on, but I do not believe that to be a possibility as the Notification bar was only removed now in the Beta 7 build.

    The '''''Status bar''''' was removed from the Firefox 4.0betas as of 4.0b7, and replaced by the '''Add-on bar''' as planned for Firefox 4.0 .
    The Status4Evar extension provides the 3 basic functions of the old Status bar as "widgets" for the new Add-ons bar. <br />

  • No notifications in notification bar on lock screen after Lollipop upgrade

    Before my G3 was "upgraded" to 5.01, I could double tap the screen, the lock screen would come up, and at the top of the screen in the notification bar, there would be icons for new SMS, emails and calendar events, if there were any new ones.
    After the 5.01 "upgrade", that is no longer the case.  I have to actually unlock the screen, and then the icons in the notification bar are visible.
    I've heard and read that the 5.01 upgrade now lets you have notifications directly on the lock screen.  That is NOT what I am referring to.  This is the actual notification bar icons, which worked before the "upgrade", but now do not.
    The first image below show where the notifications for SMS, emails, calendar events, etc used to be shown.  The second image shows the icons are visible after unlocking the phone.
    So, does anyone know how to make the notifications show up in the notification bar while the lock screen is displayed? 

    All the notifications for the G2 and G3 have been under the clock that I have seen and no indicators in the bar.

  • The music app on my Iphone 5 is acting up, it keeps skipping  songs and wont allow the to play. You can see the music icon the on notification bar play and pause. When i go back to the app is states the url is not responding. I have restored it.

    The music app on my Iphone 5 is acting up, it keeps skipping  songs and wont allow the to play. You can see the music icon the on notification bar play and pause. When i go back to the app is states the url is not responding. I have restored it from the backed up cloud save. It is the music app, I played music on pandora and it worked fine. I think it must be the app or the ios.

    restore with itunes not from an itunes backup or cloud save they do absolutely nothing only a clean restore will solve your problem

  • I am having problem with my notifications bar and control centre bar. It doesn't work with sliding my fingers on the screen and when I restart the phone it works properly  but again after few days the problem persist? My phone is an iphone6 8.1.3

    notification bar and control centre not working by sliding on the screen and when u restart it works fine for 4-5 days then again the problem persists

    First, try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data by resetting.
    If this does not help, set it up as new device, explained here:
    How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
    If still no luck, get it checked by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider or contact Apple Support to get it serviced:

  • No calculator in notification bar

    On my iMac I also have a small calculator in the side bar (notification bar), on my Macbook ProI have only 'Today, Social and Tomorrow'.
    How exactly can I install the 'Calculator' or more?
    Goos.

    I did exactly as you suggested.
    A new .plist was not created so I put it back again.
    The only difference is that a new option has been created (not visible until now) next to the 'Done' button and that is 'App Store'.
    Clicking it brings me to the App store 'Notification Centre - Widgets'. The lines are empty and there is no option to go any further.
    Goos.
