Setting notifications

Notifications are actions that Konversation will perform whenever an event occurs. Suppose you have Konversation running, but minimized or hidden behind other application windows on your desktop. If someone wants to communicate with you, or your buddy joins a channel, you'd like to be alerted. Notifications will accomplish this.

To configure notifications, choose Settings->Configure Notifications on the main menu. The Notification Settings screen will appear.

Immediately click the More Options button.


The Notification Settings screen

1

Click here to select an event.

2

Check the types of notifications you'd like to happen when the event occurs. (Mark taskbar entry causes the entry in the taskbar to flash when the event occurs.)

Repeat by selecting another event and checking the notifications desired. When you've configured all the desired notifications, click the Apply button.

3

Once you've set up your notifications, you can enable or disable all notification actions here. For example, you can choose to play a sound whenever your nickname is mentioned in a message. When you are at your workstation, you can disable the sounds, but while you are away from your workstation but nearby, you can enable the sounds in order to get your attention.

Tip

You can also alert yourself when someone mentions your nickname in a message using Konversation's highlighting feature.
