Monitor setup

This bug is not the same as the bug 342605 (https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=342605).

i switched my external monitor to the left of my laptop monitor (used to be on the right before) and from now on, the notifications are too low (see capture Notif.png). I don't know if that's of any help but I also put a screenshot of the monitor placement (Screen_Setup.png).

Thanks for the report

So on which screen do the notifications appear? Can you also post output of "xrandr -q"?

Thanks

The notifications appear on the external monitor, the HDMI monitor on the left. 

My xrandr -q : 

$ xrandr -q

I found out that the notifications are correctly displayed if the monitors are horizonta
Comment 5 tromzy 2015-10-19 14:16:38 UTC
I found out that the notifications are correctly displayed if the monitors are horizontally aligned (see screenshot attached).

Comment 7 Martin Klapetek 2016-04-05 03:27:32 UTC
This should be fixed now.

Please retest with Plasma 5.6 and report back if this is still a problem.

Thanks

Thank you very much. I tried and the notifications are displayed the way they should, so I guess it is fixed now.
