Created attachment 145423 [details] Screenshot of the popup SUMMARY Notifications popup opens very small STEPS TO REPRODUCE Not sure on which occasions this happens, but I'm going to describe my Panel setup 1. Create a top panel containing Applets: Kickoff, Window Title, Global Menu, Flexible spacer, System Tray, KDE Connect, Networks, Volume, Digital Clock, Notifications 2. Configure System Tray > Entries > Notifications > Disabled 3. (Maybe restart Plasma) 4. Click on the notifications plasmoid OBSERVED RESULT Opens up very small (see screenshot) (Can be resized with Meta+Right click drag) EXPECTED RESULT Open with a normal size, like before SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux/KDE Plasma: KDE Plasma Version: 5.23.90 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.90.0 Qt Version: 5.15.12 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Let me know if you need any additional information regarding my setup
I also noticed that it happens after resizing it, then receiving a notification, removing it from the history and opening it again after waiting some time. I think this is a consequential error though as it somehow resets the size to the original one and that one is wrong.
Can reproduce. Seems fixable.
A possibly relevant merge request was started @ https://invent.kde.org/plasma/plasma-workspace/-/merge_requests/1362
Nice, thank you I will try the patch later today. Quick note what just came to my mind: Would it be possible to add an option to set the size when using notifications as a panel applet? This would make it possible to configure it like the notification sidebar in Windows 10.

How did that regress? In the original implementation I made sure that it worked fine as a standalone panel applet.

Hm, I just looked, and I think it's still quite small. I liked the way it was in the old Plasma version. I still think an option to configure it would be best
Created attachment 146526 [details] Notifications are still broken in Plasma 5.24 The size currently set, 16 x 16, is still way too small and, in any case, much smaller than the applet was before. This makes notifications too dense and the messages scrollable; in other words, the applet is nigh unusable right now. Through some trial and error, and doing a comparison to another install that still has 5.23, I reconstructed that the previous size was 18 x 24.
Created attachment 146527 [details] Notifications applet with the correct size
As already mentioned I agree with what Riccardo said.
Perhaps I failed to understand the original issue but I don't see the problem in those screenshots. Can you clarify what exactly the issue is?
The old size that the plasmoid, when it was open had, was much more reasonable.
What was the old size, though? Maybe you can find a size that works for you by changing the implicitWidth and implicitHeight values in /usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.notifications/contents/ui/FullRepresentation.qml See if you can find the value that makes it the size it used to be.

As I wrote in my previous message, I reconstructed the size to be 18 x 24.
I manually edited `/usr/share/plasma/plasmoids/org.kde.plasma.notifications/contents/ui/FullRepresentation.qml` to use 18 x 24, and I think it's much more reasonable. Would it make sense to add an option for it in the plasmoid settings? Seems like it does not already have settings.
