Chrome OS Notifications

image

The notifications panel is used for all OS and website notifications

Functionality:

  • Pops up along the bottom for any new notifications
  • Slides down after a delay
  • Can be closed to hide all notifications
  • Can be opened from the apps list
  • Sticky notifications (like the low battery notification) do not slide down unless the user clicks on the titlebar

Future goals

  • We may eventually anchor this panel in a special location on the screen, but for now it behaves as a standard panel, opening to the left of any existing panels.
  • Notifications should be able to badge application icons (like browser actions).
  • Better support for notification actions (links along the bottom).
