The summary is meant for a short summary, not half a novel. It could still have a tooltip, though. > The summary is meant for a short summary, not half a novel.
It don't that it was that long, however I shortened it a bit. :)
Additional ideas:
* Expand the notification message by a click on the notification in the plasmoid. There could be an arrow indicating this possibility.
* Make a notifaction (but not necessarily the text) selectable in order to use Ctrl+C to copy the message to the clipboard.
As I noticed it's not exactly the notification text, which is cut off, but especially the title: $ notify-send "This is a very long TITLE, which won't fit into the notification window and therefore won't be completely readable!" "And this is a very long notification description, which will line break and is copyable!" Git commit 3c52fc3bc05e0f351d4998ad54edae1a4e21a043 by Kai Uwe Broulik. Committed on 09/05/2019 at 09:29.

Created attachment 116711 [details] Screenshot of the notification popup, which demonstrates the issue. SUMMARY If the notification text is too long, it is cut off and ends with "..." It is not possible to either to enlarge notification window nor to copy the text by e.g. a context menu. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Open the Konsole 2. Execute $ notify-send "This is a very long text, which won't fit into the notification window!" 3. Observe the result both in the notification pop up and notification plasmoid window OBSERVED RESULT "This is a very long text, which won't fit into the no..." "This is a very long text, which won't... 10 sec" EXPECTED RESULT If the text is too long * To be completely shown in a hint when the mouse is over the text * To be copyable to the clipboard * I'd expect it to line break if possible: "This is a very long text, which won't \ fit into the notification window!" "This is a very long text, which won't\ 10 sec" fit into the notification window!"
