Description Olivier van der Toorn 2019-09-30 09:03:01 UTC

SUMMARY
The "Do not disturb" functionality does not support setting precise times.
When enabling the options 'Until this Evening' or 'Until tomorrow morning' it might be nice to be able to configure the precise time. Either a secondary question or a config field would solve this problem.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Tick 'Do not disturb' box in notifications widget.
2. Select 'Until this evening' or 'Until tomorrow morning'.
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
Not being able to select time.

EXPECTED RESULT
A secondary question, or something configurable somewhere, to specify the time.

SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Gentoo Linux
KDE Plasma Version: 5.16.5
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.62.0
Qt Version: 5.12.5

Right now the UI is geared towards ad-hoc activation. What I suspect you're looking for is a way to set a precise daily schedule, like we have with smartphones. That's a use case that we should probably support.

Comment 2 Olivier van der Toorn 2019-10-07 06:30:59 UTC

That is right. I'm looking for more flexibility when enabling this function. For example, maybe you want the 'Do not disturb until this evening' to mean until 9 PM, instead of 8 PM.

Comment 3 Kai Uwe Broulik 2019-10-08 12:50:11 UTC

It was originally planned but didn't make the cut for time and resource reasons.
I'll see if I find time to finish this.
My idea is to be able to configure the morning and evening times and also whether to automatically enable it inbetween (and when, weekdays, weekends, every day)

This is relevant for PlaMo, as people don't tend to power off their phones at night, so a scheduled DND feature is pretty important.

Comment 7 kde.snowdrift465 2025-09-01 18:25:24 UTC

It would be great to have both the current ad hoc DND (including an option to specify the duration, currently only hard coded options) AND scheduled DND. Please do not remove the ad hoc DND while implementing scheduled DND, they are both useful in different use cases.
