Growl Questions...

How do I get growl to display its notifications in the bottom right hand corner of the screen? I tried switching the bezel options inside of the growl pref. pane to the bottom right but it didn't seem to work. All the notifications pop up in the top left every time...

Positioning is one of the things lacking in Growl currently. The big reason why we didn't have it in previous versions and 0.6.2 is because we have to make it so that some notifications don't overlap others of the same type, etc. I personally want to use smoke and bubbles at the same time but cannot currently, etc.

A final draft of the positioning specification proposal was just submitted today to the rest of the Growl team. This means we should see cool positioning stuffs in .7.

Positioning with bezel *should* work currently, but since we're going to be implementing a much better system anyhow I'm not going to worry about that one.

What other things aren't working though?

Sounds GOOD!
I'm anxious to see that!
