Created attachment 170547 [details] Screenshot showing the popups (in French) SUMMARY When the network is not accessible (eg captive portal), NeoChat pops up a notification at the bottom of the window. This notification has multiple issues: * It is shown 5 times and new notifications keep popping up every second, discarding the 4th one with an animation * It is not anchored to any GUI element and floats in a seemingly random location (until you realize it's the bottom center of the window) * The notifications overlap with messages and the compose area STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Connect to a WiFi network with a captive portal preventing NeoChat from accessing the web (in a hotel, train, station, airport, ...) 2. Open NeoChat 3. Watch for notifications OBSERVED RESULT As described above EXPECTED RESULT A non-intrusive banner is shown explaining that NeoChat could not connect and is retrying (or allowing the user to retry manually) SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Operating System: KDE neon 6.0 KDE Plasma Version: 6.0.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 6.2.0 Qt Version: 6.7.0 Kernel Version: 6.5.0-35-generic (64-bit) Graphics Platform: Wayland ADDITIONAL INFORMATION

Git commit 5642f3416a12a558e510fe03f4604c683329ae31 by James Graham. Committed on 26/10/2024 at 12:28. Pushed by nvrwhere into branch 'master'. Pester Network Error Messages Stop sending a pester message using showPassiveNotification every time there is a network error. There is already a proper handling with `isOnline` in `NeochatConnection`. This just causes issues overlapping content.
