Display

  # Which monitor should the notifications be displayed on.
  monitor = 0

  # Display notification on focused monitor.  Possible modes are:
  #   mouse: follow mouse pointer
  #   keyboard: follow window with keyboard focus
  #   none: don't follow anything
  #
  # "keyboard" needs a windowmanager that exports the
  # _NET_ACTIVE_WINDOW property.
  # This should be the case for almost all modern windowmanagers.
  #
  # If this option is set to mouse or keyboard, the monitor option
  # will be ignored.
  follow = keyboard

  # The geometry of the window:
  #   [{width}]x{height}[+/-{x}+/-{y}]
  # The geometry of the message window.
  # The height is measured in number of notifications everything else
  # in pixels.  If the width is omitted but the height is given
  # ("-geometry x2"), the message window expands over the whole screen
  # (dmenu-like).  If width is 0, the window expands to the longest
  # message displayed.  A positive x is measured from the left, a
  # negative from the right side of the screen.  Y is measured from
  # the top and down respectevly.
  # The width can be negative.  In this case the actual width is the
  # screen width minus the width defined in within the geometry option.
  geometry = "250x50-10+37"

  # Show how many messages are currently hidden (because of geometry).
  indicate_hidden = yes

  # Shrink window if it's smaller than the width.  Will be ignored if
  # width is 0.
  shrink = no

  # The transparency of the window.  Range: [0; 100].
  # This option will only work if a compositing windowmanager is
  # present (e.g. xcompmgr, compiz, etc.).
  transparency = 0

  # The height of the entire notification.  If the height is smaller
  # than the font height and padding combined, it will be raised
  # to the font height and padding.
  notification_height = 0

  # Draw a line of "separator_height" pixel height between two
  # notifications.
  # Set to 0 to disable.
  separator_height = 4

  # Padding between text and separator.

  # Horizontal padding.

  # Defines width in pixels of frame around the notification window.
  # Set to 0 to disable.

  # Defines color of the frame around the notification window.

  # Define a color for the separator.
  # possible values are:
  #  * auto: dunst tries to find a color fitting to the background;
  #  * foreground: use the same color as the foreground;
  #  * frame: use the same color as the frame;
  #  * anything else will be interpreted as a X color.
  separator_color = frame

  # Don't remove messages, if the user is idle (no mouse or keyboard input)
  # for longer than idle_threshold seconds.
  # Set to 0 to disable.
  # default 120

  # Sort messages by urgency.
  sort = yes

Text

  font = Hack Nerd Font 10

  # The height of a single line.  If the height is smaller than the
  # font height, it will get raised to the font height.
  # This adds empty space above and under the text.
  line_height = 4

  # Possible values are:
  # full: Allow a small subset of html markup in notifications:
  #        <b>bold</b>
  #        <i>italic</i>
  #        <s>strikethrough</s>
  #        <u>underline</u>
  #
  #        For a complete reference see
  #        <http://developer.gnome.org/pango/stable/PangoMarkupFormat.html>.
  #
  # strip: This setting is provided for compatibility with some broken
  #        clients that send markup even though it's not enabled on the
  #        server. Dunst will try to strip the markup but the parsing is
  #        simplistic so using this option outside of matching rules for
  #        specific applications *IS GREATLY DISCOURAGED*.
  #
  # no:    Disable markup parsing, incoming notifications will be treated as
  #        plain text. Dunst will not advertise that it has the body-markup
  #        capability if this is set as a global setting.
  #
  # It's important to note that markup inside the format option will be parsed
  # regardless of what this is set to.
