Bug ID: 436491
Summary: Do not hide the notifications icon if they are not
deleted
Product: plasmashell
Version: 5.21.4
Platform: Other
OS: Other
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Notifications
Assignee: k...@privat.broulik.de
Reporter: kde.podag...@slmail.me
CC: plasma-b...@kde.org
Target Milestone: 1.0
SUMMARY
As it is now, it is hidden even though there are pending notifications. This
doesn't make much sense to me.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Receive a notification
2. Access the notification icon
3. Try to access the notification again
OBSERVED RESULT
You will need to go to the hidden icons to access the notification again,
because the widget was hidden, but I didn't delete the notification (which
would be the same thing as "mark as read"), so the widget should still be
visible.
EXPECTED RESULT
It should at least be possible to hide it only when all notifications are
read/deleted. This is how most other desktops work, because it is more logical.
And because opening the widget does not mean that you have read all
notifications or that they are no longer relevant.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Operating System: Arch Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.21.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.81.0
Qt Version: 5.15.2
Kernel Version: 5.11.16-zen1-1-zen
OS Type: 64-bit
Graphics Platform: Wayland
Processors: 4 × Intel® Core™ i5-4440 CPU @ 3.10GHz
Memory: 4 GiB of RAM
Graphics Processor: Mesa DRI Intel® HD Graphics 4600
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
And yes, you could keep it always active, but just as it doesn't make sense to
hide it when notifications are pending, it doesn't make sense to display it
when there is nothing to be read.
This can be quite annoying when you are a new user of plasma and/or are trying
to migrate from another DE. Since most of them work this way I mentioned.
