Skip song in OS X 10.9

In OS X 10.9, Notification Centre has a new feature with interactive notifications. Would it be possible to add a Skip button to the notification?

Hey @fill1890,

I just looked into this quickly. Short story, no.

For action buttons to appear on a NSUserNotification, the alert style needs to be set to Alerts and not Banners.

Unfortunately, alert style alerts are not automatically dismissed - you have to press the "Close" button on the top right of the alert to close it.

I think that this would be a inconvenience, especially when you can just skip the song by pressing a key on your keyboard.

Hi again.

I agree with what you said, but in OS X Mavericks, Apple included a feature that allows interactive notifications. For example, when somebody sends a message, you can click the button to reply, but the banner will move away automatically (Sorry, you probably already know this).

Is there then some way to implement this in Spotify Notifications? iTunes has a similar function in its notifications.

@fill1890,

Perhaps, but I'm not completely sure and I don't have the time to look into it right now.

If you can find some documentation for implementing the feature, that's fine, but I'm leaving the issue closed for now.

Notifications now have a skip button as of #56 being merged in! Thanks @fill1890 :)
