            Bug ID: 415803
           Summary: User is not aware of warnings shown as inline messages
                    if we apply changes by clicking on "Ok" button of
                    standalone KCMs
           Product: frameworks-kcmutils
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdelibs-b...@kde.org
          Reporter: bugsefor...@gmx.com
  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
Some KCMs show an inline message after we apply a change, like a warning saying
that the change will only be applied with newly started apps or after we
restart plasma session.
User is not aware of such messages if standalone KCMs are used and we click on
"Ok" button to apply the changes because the KCMs closes immediately after
click on such button.
The following KCMs are affected:
display configuration (only on X11 after display scale changing)
cursors (only on Wayland)
fonts and language (on both X11 and Wayland sessions)

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. open standalone Fonts KCM
2. change any font setting and click on "Ok" button 
3. 

OBSERVED RESULT
KCM closes and user sees no message.
If we click on "Apply" button instead, the KCM shows an inline message
saying that some settings will only affect newly started apps.


EXPECTED RESULT
user is also aware of the message even if "Ok" button of the standalone KCM is
clicked.
Maybe the inline message can be shown as a Plasma notification.
