[SailfishDevel] Transient notification categories

[Andrew Branson]

Hello,

Yes I did, but that's more geared towards an application that publishes its own notifications, rather than eavesdropping on them like pebbled is. I found the most relevant info in QtCreator help under Lipstick>Related Pages>Notifications, which said "If a notification is intended to have no presence in the events view, it should set the 'transient' hint to true. This will cause it to be closed immediately after it has been displayed to the user.".

Thanks,

Andrew

I thought that would be a good indicator of whether the notification should be forwarded to the watch, so I did that, but after that no messaging notifications were coming through at  all. I checked the category files, and all of the messaging preview categories have the transient property set, even though they are persistent on the Events view. Can anyone tell me what's going on here? How does the system decide which notifications end up on the events view?
