Description Janek Bevendorff 2012-12-08 19:07:33 UTC
When clicking on the notification icon to bring up old/missed notifications, the appearing Plasma popup doesn't disappear automatically again when it loses focus.
The behavior here should be consistent throughout the whole KDE desktop, so the Notifications popup should disappear as well when losing focus.

Still the case with 4.10.1.
I would suggest to mark this as an bug extramile, i.e. in blocks field enter extramile.

I guess this now is in 4.11, but the bug was not marked as resolved. However, the new behaviour is extremely annoying.

If I open up the recent notifications and then move the mouse to the right to dismiss some or all of them permanently it easily happens that I move the mouse a few pixels too far to the right so the notifications loses the focus and immediately disappear. Since the close buttons are on the right side this very easily happens.

While I also think that the notifications should hide when they lose focus I think this hiding should be delayed for 1-2 seconds, otherwise I get annoyed by having to open up the popup multiple times and only slowly moving the mouse to be able to get rid of them.

For me, sometimes a notification pops up but does not ever go away. When I hover the mouse it gets blurred, but does not go away. How can I switch that one off, now only log out helps.

Hello!

This bug report was filed for KDE Plasma 4, which reached end-of-support status in August 2015. KDE Plasma 5's desktop shell has been almost completely rewritten for better performance and usability, so it is likely that this bug has already been resolved in Plasma 5.

Accordingly, we hope you understand why we must close this bug report. If the issue described  here is still present in KDE Plasma 5.12 or later, please feel free to open a new ticket in the "plasmashell" product after reading https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved/Bug_Reporting

If you would like to get involved in KDE's bug triaging effort so that future mass bug closes like this are less likely, please read https://community.kde.org/Get_Involved#Bug_Triaging

Thanks for your understanding!
