Widget beep

Post by povaddict »

I have been months trying to figure out what program was causing those strange beeps. It was the same sound as when a popup message appears, but I couldn't find such message from any open application. I JUST found I had the 'beep on update' checkbox set on the BOINC stats widget!

Could you use a custom sound instead of calling beep()? It would cause less confusion since users would know what caused the sound... :?

Hi,

Sorry that this has been driving you mad ;-)

It maybe possible - I'll have to take a look at the Javascript API.

Cheers,

Neil.

Perhaps you could make it say "Boinc" but sounding like a croaking frog
