[Xymon] Several yellow alerts on nongreen.html page, acknowledge alerts lists none

[Ribeiro, Glauber]

I find the blinking annoying too. I used some graphics editor (don't remember which, maybe it was Gimp) to tinker with the blink rate, until I got them to blink very slowly.

Hi Kris. Thanks for that.   I am pretty much OK with many of the defaults, and
the the default (I think 240mins, 4 hours) for the 'recent' icons is OK for
me.   I am not always at the workstation, and the longer history is sometimes
useful to me.  Heck, now that you mention it, I may increase it. lol

I am using the custom icon set that I think is called "LED".  They have a nice
sharp look, but they all blink in unison and about 2 time/second so a page of
flashing icons gets a bit annoying rather quickly.

I am no graphics person, but would love to see a set of icons similar to the
LED ones I am using, but with a slower, fading in/out rather than flashing on
the animated icons. :)

Thanks for the reply Kris

Bill
