Send notification over game

  • 772

I use Ubuntu 14.04 and know I can send a notification to the screen by executing this command in a shell (.sh) script:

notify-send "Task complete."

But it does not seem when another application (for example a game) is in fullscreen mode. How I can solve this problem?

    Simply add -u critical to your notify-send, e.g.

    notify-send -u critical "Task complete."

    You can also specify other levels of urgency (low, normal, critical).
