Description jerrys 2021-03-21 02:19:36 UTC 
SUMMARY
There is nothing more annoying than the discovery "Software Updates" notification pop up which stays on the screen. I think users should have the option to decide whether they want notifications to stay or not stay on their screens. All other notifications disappear, but this one.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Discover finds updates
2. Notification pop up appears on the screen and stays on the screen until removed by manual click.

OBSERVED RESULT
Software Updates notification stay on the screen and does not disappear as configured in notifications option "Hide after".

EXPECTED RESULT
The notification disappears after time specified in Notification option "Hide after".

This notification times out automatically for me. We experimented with making it persistent a few Plasma versions ago but ultimately reverted the change because people found it annoying. Are you sure you're using Plasma 5.21?

Hmm, so you are.

No idea then. I wonder if maybe openSUSE makes the notification persistent? Fabian, do you know if there are any distro patches here?
Comment 4 Fabian Vogt 2021-03-21 14:31:52 UTC 
No, the discover notifier is completely vanilla.

However, I'm suspecting that this is actually about plasma-pk-updates, which is used by default.
Comment 5 Nate Graham 2021-03-21 15:03:51 UTC 
Aha, could be. Is that one sticky?

Jerry, Can you please attach a screenshot of the notification you're talking about?

sticky notification
Comment 7 Nate Graham 2021-03-25 19:01:07 UTC 
Aha yeah, that's the plasma-pk-updates notification.

Worth noting that we tried making Discover's update notification sticky just like this one, and we got similar complaints about it.
