Dynamically change geometry with rules

[the-anonymous-raven]

Dunst does not support adding flags like geometry while using notify-send. Is it possible to implement this feature?

What's your use case for it? It's probably possible with rules. Rules are very flexible and I don't want to add yet another way to do the same thing

I tried using the rules to change geometry but was unsuccessful.

Currently it's not possible to change the geometry without restarting dunst. This is a feature we are looking to implement though. I'll make this issue about that if you don't mind

What's the status on this? I have the same problem. I want my battery low notification to be in the center of the screen but geometry does not work. I can't even get the new system to work (width=100). The geometry works on global though.

    background = "#900000"
    geometry = "0x0-100+100"
    foreground = "#ffffff"
    frame_color = "#ff0000"
    timeout = 5
