Bugzilla – Bug 17072
add support for a type = 'alertWindow' over displaystatus that brings up a persistent window
Last modified: 2011-05-18 15:36:20 UTC
this came up as a need for work on the commercial branch, but I think it's of general use so will be checking things into 7.6/trunk. Adding a new available type to showBriefly messages from server, type ='alertWindow'. Produces a full window instead of a popup with the message displayed in a textarea. Window should not allow screensavers while it is visible. For the bug to be closed, API docs on the wiki need to be updated.

Sadly I think that showBriefly was documented nowhere, esp. for Jive. I gave it a start here http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/SBS_SqueezePlay_interface#showBriefly_communications including alertWindow details Marking this bug as resolved now
Closing due to Ben' comments. Will re-open if needed.
