Instant arrival! Win8 message reminder set two or three things

In Windows 8, the desktop is regarded as a powerful application, while the immersive experience of other applications can make users concentrate on the current work. However, the problem at the same time is whether the push of new news will affect the concentrated work, and whether the message is completely blocked will miss important content. The length of the message reminder varies from person to person. Therefore, the settings for application message reminders are particularly important.

By default, Windows 8 enables all supported application message reminders. When a new message arrives, a message will pop up at the top right of the screen to remind the user that a new message has arrived. The message can be switched to the corresponding app view, and the reminder will stop when clicked.

When we are focusing on a particular job and don't want to be disturbed by some similar messages, we can close the message reminder. In the case of opening a message, it is also possible to set whether the lock screen prompts the message and whether the message sound is played. You can see the above setting information by selecting "Settings" - "Change PC Settings" - "Notification" in "Charms".

If you block all messages directly, you are worried that you will miss something important, such as mail. We can turn on the global message reminder, set a separate setting for an app, and turn on the message reminder for the app. This setting is also in the "message" settings.

In addition to setting the above content, there is also an easy to ignore content - message reminder duration: too short time will ignore the message reminder when thinking or daze, too long and will Affects the display of the current screen. The notification duration can be set in the "Push Button" - "Settings" - "Change PC Settings" - "Easy Use" - "Show Notifications" drop-down menu, the setting range can be between 5s-5min.

The settings in this place can also be accessed via the "Control Panel" - "Easy to use" - "Make it easier for you to follow the task" - "How long should the Windows notification dialog open? "Set the settings.

In addition to setting up the app, the traditional notification area setting is not canceled under the desktop app. It can be set by the icon and notification of the taskbar tray, and the displayed icon will appear in the taskbar tray.

After clicking "Enable or Disable System Icon", you can also select the system icon to be set.

As a multi-platform compatible operating system, Windows 8 is still facing huge challenges. Although it can already run on different platforms, there is still room for improvement in its user experience. For example, the notification setting in this article can well set the different reminders in detail, and the function is relatively complete. However, the location of the settings is really not perfect - the notifications applied to the desktop are set according to different categories, and the settings in "Easy to use" are easy to ignore and not perfect.
