<div dir="ltr">Hey Sam,<div><br></div><div>Thanks for working on this! I have a quick suggestion though.</div><div><br></div><div>In critical notifications, the message bubble seems (to me) a bit off from the general layout. Think it could be aligned in terms of dimensions with the top bar of the frame? ie., temporary overlapping with the top bar of the frame. Plus, we make the summary and body a little closer to the vertical center of the bubble, and limit both summary and body to one line, by limiting it length with ellipse.END.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I think it would look better that way. </div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Aug 10, 2014 at 4:52 AM, Sam P. <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:sam.parkinson3@gmail.com" target="_blank">sam.parkinson3@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

It will really expose sugar only stuff (progress bars).<br>
<br></div>I was making all of these patches with one vision in mind: better auto updates. I was thinking having some silent progress notifications in the background as well as one once the auto update is done. So like "Scanning for updates" (progress bar then "X updates found" as summary) then "Updating XYZ" and finally "Your Activities Are Now Up To Date". Also I think it would be nice to have an "enable auto updates" switch in the cpanel but that's another matter.<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
