Feature request: Adding custom message to desktop notification #54
Comments
@bjornasm Yes it is linked to #36. There is a plan for users to be able to specify their timers in more expressive ways, though I don't see it happening anytime soon. There is a workaround one can use for now: arttime's notification does show the name of art. A user can open multiple instances of arttime, and have different timers or time manager programs in each. If the displayed art in each instances is different, they would be able to get the context of notification. Check for example the "keypoem" file share/arttime/keypoems/timer.banana10learn_8b below.
It can be loaded from command line like this: The good part is you can create as many such "keypoems" and save them in the same or different directory. The syntax is the same as the keystrokes one would type in arttime's interface to get an effect. Essentially arttime interprets contents of the file as if each key were pressed (with couple differences).

@bjornasm Btw... As getting notifications to drink water would be so common, I went ahead and added basic water ASCII art and a keypoem. To give it a try, pull and install the main branch again... Then either launch arttime to load the program at launch time: |
Thank you for your extremely thorough reply as well as this added feature @poetaman ! |
This is possibly linked to #36 - but it would be nice to add a custom message to be displayed on the desktop notification. Say if you have a timer to remember to take a walk and drink a glass of water every other hour in between other types of timers it would be nice to have a specific textual reminder for that. I can have a quick look on the source to see if this is something I am able to contribute to.
