 ===== Notifications ===== ===== Notifications =====
  
 +Lite will display various notifications in the lower right of your display at different times.
  
 +For example when logging on to Lite, a notification will display a welcome message and the last IP address used to logon.
 +
 +{{logon_notification.png}}
 +
 +By default the notifications section of Lite blocks Library Health Warnings as this notification is more relevant in TapeMaster.  
 +
 +<code>
 +notifications = 
 +{
 +   filters= 
 +   (
 +      { 
 +        title="Library Health Warning"; line1="*"; line2="*"; disable=true;
 +      }
 +   )
 +};
 +</code>
 +
 +It is possible to block other notifications, if required, by adding additional blocks of code for the required notifications. For example to remove, or block, the ''Logged-On'' notification modify the ''notifications'' block of code to include the following code.
 +
 +<code>
 +notifications = 
 +{
 +   filters= 
 +   (
 +      { 
 +        title="Library Health Warning"; line1="*"; line2="*"; disable=true;
 +      },
 +      {
 +     title="Logged-On"; line1="*"; line2="*"; disable=true;
 +      }
 +   )
 +};
 +</code>
