custom notifications aren't shown

[dinesh-58]

In Emacs, I'm using the below bit of code to get notifications for my agenda tasks. Notifications don't show when glaze is running. Might be something to do with how Emacs' w32-notification-notify function works.

(setq
 '(org-wild-notifier-alert-time '(10 3))
 '(org-wild-notifier-mode t)
)
(use-package alert
  :config
  ;; Add the windows desktop notifications if on windows
  (when (eq system-type 'windows-nt)
    (alert-define-style
     'windows-desktop-notification-style
     :title "Windows Desktop Notification style"
     :notifier
     (lambda (info)
       (let ((notif-id (w32-notification-notify :title (plist-get info :title) :body (plist-get info :message))))
         ;; Close it after 5 seconds (no new notification can be sent if left unclosed)
         (run-with-timer 5 nil `(lambda() (w32-notification-close ,notif-id))))))
    (setq alert-default-style 'windows-desktop-notification-style)))

I also found this powershell snippet online to test notifications and that too doesn't work when glaze is running. To test this, you'll need to save a valid icoOnline.ico file in your home directory and configure Set-ExecutionPolicy.

[void] [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("System.Windows.Forms")

$objNotifyIcon = New-Object System.Windows.Forms.NotifyIcon 

$objNotifyIcon.Icon = "icoOnline.ico"
$objNotifyIcon.BalloonTipIcon = "None" 
$objNotifyIcon.BalloonTipText = "wzzup this is a title." 
$objNotifyIcon.BalloonTipTitle = "WHATS UPPP THIS IS A PARAGRAPH!"

$objNotifyIcon.Visible = $True 
$objNotifyIcon.ShowBalloonTip(10000)

This online notifications test works though. I don't think this bug is too important to fix.

Note: these notifications don't even show up in the notifications tray so glaze might be affecting how notifications are handled
