Version: (using Devel) OS: Linux Installed from: Compiled sources When there are recent notifications from a few apps, the plasma notifications become too wide. Right now they're taking more than half of the width of my 15' screen. The label text of the apps should be ellided if they are too long.

The tabbar containing the applications' names has a maximum width of 400px... May be a smaller size should be applied ? @Marco: what do you think ? Regards
Created attachment 40046 [details] screenshot It's definitely wider than 400px here...
May be the value is not being honored....
I did some tests about it on 4.5 trunk: Test 1: --- I spawned several notifications (using dbus) (with different appnames) with a delay of 1s between them After the first notification is shown, if I click the "Recent Notifications" "expand" button (to show the application TabBar); all the other applications appear properly, the maxwidth is honored and the "<>" arrows appear in the tabbar... However, if I click one item in the Tabbar, the tabbar is "expanded" (the maxwidth is not honored and the "<>" arrows dissapear) Test 2: --- If I spawn all the notifications at the same time (without delay), the tabbar maxwidth won't be honored from the start... -- I can attach the sample code I used to spawn the notifications if needed...
