I find it useful to let notifications go after a delay without having to clear them explicitly.

Backlog:

  • clear notifications after a delay without adding new ones
  • expose this behavior at Preferences, disabled by default
  • let the user customize the delay (5 s by default)

Thank you for the feedback.

I understand you, let me think if we can support that in any way.

I will write here down some ideas:

  • moving notifications to top right corner, so do not "block" the main area and let you keep working
  • hiding notifications after a delay, but user can still open and close them as before

The reason why the notifications(errors) are displayed in the middle (and just under the popup) of the window is:

Error messages/notifications are usually displayed after an action complete/failed. At that time, to clear notifications, user can just move mouse down and click.
