Notification cover tab bar.

[gandm]

Notifications cover the tab bar making it difficult to change tabs whilst an error exists. Can notifications be placed lower down.

[emileber]

I would really like to choose from which corner the notifications can appear. Making them appear from the lower right corner would solve this issue and we could still view code since it's possible to scroll past the end of file content.

Not sure if/when this gets addressed, but in the meantime, you could temporarily add this to your styles.less:

atom-notifications {
    top: 50px; // move notifications down a bit
}

Thanks @simurai

[emacstheviking]

Awesome. I should have read further before complaining!

[damieng]

@simurai Do we want to do something like this in the default themes or just have this as a workaround for people who run into it?

[emileber]

I would say it should be the default, or move the notifications to the bottom.

[simurai]

Yeah, for the bundled themes we can move it down a bit. Moving to the bottom is also problematic because it will cover things like find-and-replace.

[damieng]

Fixed in 4c2b349 will ship with next beta.

[simurai]

@damieng With 35px the tabs will still be covered when using a custom title bar on macOS:

But maybe ok for now, since you can still click the tabs behind.

[damieng]

Yeah we can't compensate for everything a theme/person might do without restructing where notifications live in the DOM which would probably open a whole other can of worms.

[emileber]

At least it's not completely covered anymore.
