Bug 109787

Version:            (using KDE KDE 3.4.2)
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs
OS:                Linux

Why only use the lower right corner for notifications ?

we divide the desktop into 4 squares for the whole screen:
(top right, top left, bottom left, bottom right)

We can use the

Top right square for:
1. Laptop Information/status updates ?

Top left for:
1. application OSD etc.
2. what else?

bottom left square for:
1. dunno ?

bottom right square for:
1. system notifications
2. device notifications

If these are standardised will be great and will disperse the notification areas acording to categories to different sections of the screen. These need to be standardised on the desktop so no matter what application/error generated it gets displayed in the appropriate section of the screen.

There needs to be a standard on the color of the notification:
Red: Critical User needs to take care of if immediately

Yellow: User can continue working on his work, but will need to look at it at a later stage

Green: Application update success etc eg: yast update successfully compelted etc.

Distribution developers can standardise this on their desktops for the color and the section of the screen for the types of notifications.

I am looking forward to it Hopefully it will become reality.
