No timer near the cross icon also seems like notification is cut a little from top

SUMMARY
So with latest update i.e 5.19.90. The circular timer in notifications are not visible near the cross/close icon

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Take a partial screenshot or do any other thing to get a non critical screenshot
2. There will be no circular timer near the close/cross icon

OBSERVED RESULT
No circular timer near the close/cross icons

EXPECTED RESULT
There should be a circular timer like it was in 5.19.5

Cannot reproduce. Looks like your toolbuttons are too small as well. :/

Are you using any kind of global scaling or have you changed the font size or the font DPI? Also, does the timeout indicator come back if you clear the plasma cache with `rm ~/.cache/plasma*` and then restart plasmashell with `plasmashell --replace`? YOu can trigger a notification with `notify-send foo bar` to test.

Thanks Nate clearing cache fixed the issue. Sorry I was not aware that this could fix the issue. Will keep this in mind from next time. Sorry to take up your time in this. Have a nice day time to go back to your blog hehehe.

Thanks. However you shouldn't have needed to clear the cache! :) I wonder if this is an artifact of porting the button from PlasmaCompoents2 to 3 for the button.

FWIW I have seen various other user reports of this too so it doesn't seem like a one-off thing.

A shotgun solution would be to clear the SVG cache after package upgrades of Plasmashell just like we do for Plasma Framework.

Looks like this is affecting more than just the timer; the Taks Manager's media controls tooltip was also messed up for someone until clearing the cache. Something odd seems to be going on with the SVG cache...
Comment 7 Nishith Khanna 2020-09-22 06:09:52 UTC
Hey Nate there is one more bug too not regarding svg but regarding Highlight changed setting maybe you have some thoughts about it too as its a pretty big feature for this release so if it can be fixed would be good for stable release. If you want I can give link here about that bug
Comment 8 Nate Graham 2020-09-22 15:42:44 UTC
That's unrelated to this bug :)

Ensure FrameSvg uses lastModified timestamp when using cache

This, I suspect, is the true source of bug 426674. FrameSvg would
request items from the cache without specifying any modification time
stamp, so we end up always retrieving the cached version. Since
lastModified is now a required parameter, we need to ensure this does
not happen anymore.

Deprecate a lastModified timestamp of 0 in Theme::findInCache

lastModified is used to track whether a file is outdated. Having a 0
here means we (in the old code) use the cached version. This causes
problems when the on-disk file has changed, as we have no way of
informing callers that they should regenerate the cache entry. To avoid
this, using a lastModified of 0 now warns and will always return false
(to indicate it is not cached). Unfortunately we can't simply drop the
default parameter of 0 since there is no source-compatible way of doing
that.
