Description flyos 2013-02-28 20:53:21 UTC
When the taskbar is placed on the side of the screen, the notification icon appears on top of the systray causing the notifications to pop up quite high on the screen.

I think it would be a good idea to place the notification icon (or the notifications pop up zone) at the bottom of the screen when the taskbar is on the side. Another (potentially more complex) solution would be to let the user organize the position of the elements in the systray.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Place the taskbar on the side, with the systray at the bottom
2. Launch any application causing notifications
3. The notification pops up near the lowest quarter of the screen, which does not look good and can be a source of annoyance.
