Hi fellow Growlers,

I'm a huge fan of Growl, particularly with Adium. It's an incredibly
useful program to stay up to date with what's going on inside your
computer's head. ;D Anyway, I just had a suggestion: perhaps make
Growl notifications independent of spaces? For example, I have 4
spaces configured for my Mac and sometimes I'm switching a lot between
spaces. Whenever a Growl notification appears, it is "locked in" with
that space. So if I'm moving between space 1 and 2 and I just receive
a message in Adium, I'd have to go back to the space that I just moved
from to read the Growl note.

Perhaps this could be an additional feature that people could choose
in Growl config: "Notifications independent of spaces?" Again, Growl
is an excellent program, but sometimes it's annoying to have to move
back to a space to read a Growl notification. Perhaps this could be a
new feature in a future version. Just a thought!! :)

Thanks for your services...

Ian

I agree.

For now, you can achieve this by setting it up in the Spaces
Preferences. First, run this script:

They will be in 1.1.3, this hasn't been addressed yet but will be will
before release.
