Hey, today I was thinking a bit about our notification system. I believe that the constraints the tiny popup give us are just too limiting. Currently it fits about two notifications and for everything else one has to scroll, plus the space is really cramped for anything else besides the notifications themselves.
So it occurred to me that we could maybe reuse the same side panel we use for widget explorer and activities, only coming in from the right side. This would give us much more space and with that many more possibilities, like proper grouping of notifications from different apps and possibly also putting /all/ notifications there again (I'm still against it but with that extra space, we could afford it). The floating popups would stay but would just slide from the side of the screen to hint that it comes from the side panel. The applet would stay in the tray as well, but clicking it would open that panel. Basically the idea is to reinvent the notifications in Plasma a bit and create a kind of notification center. My plan would be to get a VDG design and then work on it for Plasma 5.6. Thoughts? Cheers -- Martin Klapetek | KDE Developer
