Notifications
Whenever there is an important event or a suggestion in the IDE, you will see a notification balloon that pops up in the bottom right corner of CLion. You can also access all notifications and events in the Notifications tool window.
CLion allows you to configure notification settings for every group of events individually. For example, you can disable all VCS notifications or enable sound notifications to inform you that your application has been built.

Select the event group for which you want to configure notification settings.
From the Popup type list, select one of the following options for balloon notifications:
Balloon: notification balloons appear on the screen for a short period of time and then disappear automatically.
Tool window balloon: notifications appear in popups. This type of notifications is available only for those event groups for which there is a corresponding tool window.
For example, notifications on reached breakpoints are related to the Debug tool window.
Sticky balloon: notification balloons stay on the screen until you close them.
No popup: balloon notifications do not appear.
Enable the Show in tool window option to display notifications for the selected event group in the Notifications tool window.
