When opening 2 or more instances of Blender on OSX, at end of any operation connected to the Notification Center (render, comp, bake), a notification is displayed even if Blender is in the foreground.

The thing is, we don't check for foreground/background processes in our side, seems it's all being decided by the notification center itself.

@jensverwiebe do you have any inputs here?

Assigning to Martijn since he's kinda maintaining OSX now. But i'm open for helping him with investigation.

All is like it should be !

If you have 2 instances of blender open and the rendering instance ! is in foreground, notification will
not show up. I will only occure if the rendering instance is in bg. So what ?

I propose to reject this issue.

My problem is that the the notification shows up for the fg blender.

Open Blender
Open another Blender on top and press F12
Notification appears

On your setup this does not happen?

Nope
This is how notifications work normally: they inform you about bg tasks.
I tried different instancing too: 2 times started blender from binary in dock - strted blender 2.74 and 2.75rc -> always correct behaviour
Perhaps check your notification center for settings, but 'am not aware you could affect this.

Or it is a bug in your OSX version ?

I can't reproduce this bug either, Blender 2.76-rc2 on OS X 10.10.5.

So either it's fixed already, or we need details about the exact Blender / OS X version and how you open Blender. Is this using two different Blender applications or a single application, are they opened by from the dock, finder, terminal, .. ?

Hey there, thanks for looking into this.
I just checked again and it seems fixed!
For the record, I was launching Blender via the terminal. I'm closing the issue, unless there is a more formal procedure to follow.
