Description Mathias Brodala 2009-04-19 11:47:38 CEST
If the text of a notification body ends with italic letters, they are cut off.

If you send "<i>BOO</i>" as notification body, you will see that the 2nd "O" is cut off due to the GtkLabel not having enough width to make up for the additional space taken by the italic formatting.

Then isn't that a gtk bug?

Ah, indeed, this could be the case. I tried "zenity --info --text='<i>BOO</i>'" and got the same result.

So, xfce4-notifyd does not seem to be at fault here. I’ll find out if there is already a report against GTK.

(Oh, and thanks for adding the Xfce4-Notifyd product. ;-) )
