-===== Xfce Notification Daemon =====+===== Xfce4-notifyd Notification service =====
  
-The **Xfce Notify Daemon** (xfce4-notifyd for short) is a smallish program that implements the "server-side" portion of the [[http://www.galago-project.org/specs/notification/0.9/index.html|Freedesktop desktop notifications specification]].  Applications that wish to pop up a notification bubble in a standard way can implicitly make use of xfce4-notifyd to do so by sending standard messages over D-Bus using the org.freedesktop.Notifications interface. +This page has been moved. [[https://docs.xfce.org/apps/notifyd/start|Please continue reading here.]]

-==== Requirements ==== +
- +
-  * gtk+ 2.14.0 +
-  * dbus 1.0.0 +
-  * dbus-glib 0.72 +
-  * libxfce4util 4.4.0 +
-  * libxfce4ui 4.7.0 +
-  * xfconf 4.6 +
- +
-Additionally, we recommend use with a compositing manager running; in that case **Xfce4-notifyd** will look a bit nicer and will be semi-transparent and will fade out.  This is not required by any means, of course. +
- +
-==== Configuration ==== +
- +
-Run **xfce4-notifyd-config** to display the settings dialog.  There aren't any other tunables; if you do not see it in the settings dialog, it's not changeable. +
- +
-==== Theming ==== +
- +
-**Xfce4-notifyd** uses GTK+'s standard theming system.  You can create new themes by creating a normal gtkrc file.  See the example included themes for details of how to reference the various widgets present in a normal notification dialog.  You will want to put your gtkrc file in $HOME/.themes/THEMENAME/xfce-notify-4.0 and then start up the configuration dialog to set the theme. +
- +
-If you think you came up with a cool theme, feel free to attach them to an enhancement request our [[http://bugzilla.xfce.org|bugzilla]], and we will be happy to include it in the next release. For themes shipped with xfce4-notifyd, we require all parts of them to be distributable under the terms of a license compatible with the GPLv2. +
- +
-==== Download ==== +
- +
-We advise you to use your distribution's package. If you know what you are doing, you can build **Xfce4-notifyd** from the source package below. +
