Notify

Cross platform notification popups, similar to "Growl" on OSX, "Toasts" on Windows, and "Notifications" on Ubuntu.

This small library can display notifications on any screen, in any corner.

Basic usage

Notify.create()
      .title("Title Text")
      .text("Hello World!")
      .useDarkStyle()
      .showWarning();

Primary Features:

Can specify which screen to use for notification.
Can specify which corner (center is also possible) to use for notification
If no location is specified, it will show on whatever screen the mouse is on (if a desktop notification)
Duration timeouts, with progress indicator on notification
Light or Dark themes
Can close via close button or clicking on notification body
Can show/hide the close button
Can register a callback for when a user clicks on the notification body
Animates to a collated position if multiple notifications are in the same position
Bypasses the swing EDT, and now renders at a beautiful 30 frames-per-second.
Can have notifications in an application or on the desktop.

This is for cross-platform use, specifically - linux 32/64, mac 32/64, and windows 32/64. Java 6+
You will need the images in the 'resources' directory, in addition to the normal libs.
Note: If you want to COMPLETELY remove repainting by the swing EDT (for the entire JVM), run NullRepaintManager.install();

Customization parameters:

-ActiveRenderLoop.TARGET_FPS  (type int, default value '30')
 - How many frames per second we want the Swing ActiveRender thread to run at?
 - NOTE: The ActiveRenderLoop replaces the Swing EDT (only for specified JFrames) in order to enable smoother animations. 
  It is also important to REMEMBER -- if you add a component to an actively managed JFrame, YOU MUST make sure to call
  JComponent.setIgnoreRepaint(boolean) otherwise this component will "fight" on the EDT for updates. You can completely
  disable the EDT by calling NullRepaintManager.install()


Notify.IMAGE_PATH    (type String, default value 'resources')
 - Location of the dialog image resources. By default they must be in the 'resources' directory relative to the application
 
 
Notify.TITLE_TEXT_FONT    (type String, default value 'Source Code Pro BOLD 16')
 - This is the title font used by a notification.

 
Notify.MAIN_TEXT_FONT    (type String, default value 'Source Code Pro BOLD 12')
 - This is the main text font used by a notification.
    
 
Notify.MOVE_DURATION    (type float, default value '1.0F')
 - How long we want it to take for the popups to relocate when one is closed

Release Notes

It is important to note that notifications for an application use the glassPane and sets it's layoutManager to null. This can cause problems with some applications, and you'll need to work around this limitation.
