[Feature request] "Pseudo-pinned" mode for low-priority notifications

Open stuartpb opened this issue 10 years ago • 6 comments

Going together with #27 and #28, it would be ideal if Clip Stack, when showing low-priority, iconless, bottom-of-the-list notifications, would allow for the ability to dismiss them, and have them reappear the next time the notification list is opened, the way Google Now notifications work.

Notification will reappear when system clipboard or clip 'stack' changed.

Yes, that's the point of this feature request, to make it so the notification will always reappear, while still allowing the notification to be dismissed (like Google Now's notifications, and to allow for special behavior on dismissal like #28).

I guess #27, #28, and #29 would best go together by replacing the "Notification" and "Pin notification" toggles with two multi-option selections (and a toggle for #27): "Notification" becoming a selection of "Show on change", "Never show", or "Always show", and "Pin notification" becoming "Dismissing notification", with options "Clear notification", "Delete clip", and "Not dismissable"

On the other hand, that would lead to a lot of effectively invalid combinations, so "Clear notification" would be disabled if "Notification" is "Always show" and "Priority" is not "Low", and "Not dismissable" only allowed if "Notification" is "Always show".

Agh. Okay, so, in the model I'm proposing, valid modes are:

  • Always show pinned
  • Show pinned whenever clipboard has content
  • Show on any change, dismiss normally
  • Show on any change, dismiss clears (if not already empty)
  • Show when clipboard gets content, dismiss normally
  • Show when clipboard has content, dismiss clears
  • Show when clipboard has content, dismiss temporarily (low priority only)
  • Always show, dismiss temporarily (low priority only)

Your suggestion sounds really great, but Android system only allow users to dismiss the hole notification, not a part of it. It may be not well when user dismiss the hole notification (including up to 5 clips) but only delete the first clip. image (Sorry I'm Chinese so my English may be not well...:) )

I see - I was thinking of a model where Clip Stack only shows whatever is currently on the system clipboard (the top item) in the notification, and switching stack items can only be done by tapping the notification to open the app.

I'll probably write another feature request later for an option to limit the number of items that appear on the notification (I'd limit it to 1 on my phone).

Is it possible to put more than 1 button next to a part of a notification (next to the copy/share buttons)? Thinking of #28. If not, what about an option to choose what button goes next to each part of the notification?
