Created attachment 119043 [details] screenshot SUMMARY Sometimes Gwenview shows the notification that we can see in my screenshot. I don't understand which criteria Gwenview uses to show or not this notification, it appears randomly when I open a file located in a Samba share. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. use Gwenview to open, via Dolphin, a file located in a Samba share OBSERVED RESULT sometimes a notification appears. See the attached screenshot. EXPECTED RESULT notification never appears SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: Arch Linux KDE Plasma Version: 5.15.3 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.56.0 Qt Version: 5.12.2
:/ That's... not great.
This notificaion appears because Gwenview downloads the file from samba share before opening it. I think that with current kio samba support such behavior is no longer necessary. Operating System: KDE neon Unstable Edition KDE Plasma Version: 5.19.80 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.71.0 Qt Version: 5.14.2
Never mind. Dolphin downloads a copy of image on mouseover when Information Panel is enabled. Currently the notification is a bit different but it is still appearing inconsistently.

With https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kio/-/merge_requests/647 the finished notification no longer sticks around. There is however still a temporary popup/progress indicator, which makes sense given it is a potentially long-running network operation
