Created attachment 146362 [details] Notifications - extra height glitch SUMMARY Sometimes notifications from various sources (like file operations, applets removal, "notification" service from the eponymous Plasma data source -> createNotification operation) may appear with a persistent extra padding on the bottom: about 72 px height below the content. It is persistent in a sense that once a notification is created, it will not alter its geometry until it dismisses. Such glitched notifications are rare and very inconsistent to get. My best bet would be to use "notifications" Plasma data source to emit twice as much notifications as needed to cover your screen entirely (so that the new ones have to wait their turn). STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Get a notification. 2. ??? 3. 0.1% chance that it is glitched. OBSERVED RESULT Extra empty vertical space below the content of notification. EXPECTED RESULT Notifications should adjust to content size.
