Summary0028450: Notification interaction with left click is inconsistent
DescriptionSometimes left click dismisses a notification I wanted to read more of, sometimes it expands a notification I maybe don't care about.

In most software systems, left click is equal to YES, MORE, EXPAND, and right click is equal to NO, SETTTINGS, CLOSE. Can this convention be brought to the game.

On my third run through of the prologue and first combat I now understand that notifications with a book icon will expand, but this wasn't clear on playthrough one, and was a major frustration point. I simply began dismissing all notifications without trying to read them, because when I wanted more text/explanation the notification would close out.

This keeps coming up in various fashions, so I think it's a good point. There's not actually anything more to read on these, but basically, having it open up the machine handbook or similar would probably be a good idea.

* Made it so that left-clicking a handbook entry notification now pops open the handbook screen and does not mark it as read. Right-clicking the handbook entry notification acts as before, clearing it and also marking it as read.

Are there any others of real relevance?
