property Growl MBS MacOSX Plugin 7.0 ✅ Yes ❌ No ❌ No ❌ No Desktop only
Function: Requests that a notification stay on-screen until dismissed explicitly.
Notes:
notifications disappear after a certain amount of time. Sticky notifications, however, remain on-screen until the user dismisses them explicitly, usually by clicking them.

Sticky notifications were introduced in Growl 0.6. Most notifications should not be sticky. Not all displays support sticky notifications, and the user may choose in Growl's preference pane to force the notification to be sticky or non-sticky, in which case the sticky bit in the notification will be ignored.
