Summary

The new notification pop-ups are great, but they can feel a bit cramped. This patch
slightly increases the paddings around the edges.

+1 I too am missing some spacing.

Not a huge fan of the dialog margins tbh. The additional row spacing inside looks fine.

Especially the top padding looks a bit off, same for the right padding to the icon.


The padding of the screenshot doesn't match the rest of the notification now

The right padding doesn't match anymore either

It also breaks when no buttons are in the title bar (that wasn't ideal before but now is even more noticeable), can be triggered when starting a copy progress and unchecking "keep progress open" in settings

Code is fine I guess.

applets/notifications/package/contents/ui/NotificationItem.qml
262

Why is this not bodyLeftPadding?

264

Can't you just increase the overall spacing of the ColumnLayout rather than setting this bottomMargin all over the place?

To anyone playing with those paddings: please note, that until T8177 is fixed, on X11 with hidpi screens you need to run Plasma with PLASMA_USE_QT_SCALING=1 env variable, as otherwise the font sizes are disproportionate to other UI elements.

Does this take into account layouts for RTL languages?

Don't do that on X, it causes all kinds of problems.

I think you meant "don't forget to switch it back afterwards", as it's literally the only way to get correct paddings on X11 with hidpi.

Just a mockup but is this middle ground solution good enough?

( I also suggested to move the disappearing indicator at the bottom here )

Yeah, it looks much better than what's currently in 5.16.

All right, I *think* I've addressed the review comments and implemented something as close to @alex-l's design as I can get it.
