Remove docked-mode notification |
||||||||
Issue descriptionWhen the lid of a laptop plugged into an external display is closed, the external display becomes the primary (if it wasn't already) and a notification appears: [Docked mode] "You can keep using your Chromebook while it's connected to an external display, even with the lid closed." I'm tired of seeing this notification every day... is it really necessary? Why bother to tell me that I can continue using the device.... that I'm using to read this notification telling me that I can continue using the device I'm using? If we can't remove it, could we at least make it a first-time-only thing, or add the notification directly to the notification list without toasting?

+afakhry who has recently been improving some of the notifications around multiple monitors & docked mode. I agree it seems like overkill. I'm not sure why it was initially added, though maybe it was because users were surprised at the external monitor staying on after closing their laptop. Happy to run this past UI Review.

Adding afakhry for real. I'll email UI Review.

We can make it a first-time only notification, if that's desired. Let me know what the UI review will suggest. Thanks.

UI Review is comfortable with removing this. +derat, they also asked us to check with you. Any objections?

I too am annoyed by this when I'm using docked mode repeatedly. Either going first-time-only or dropping it entirely sounds great to me.

UI Review is on board with removing it entirely, so let's make it happen! @afakhry let me know if you have any questions.
