Bug ID: 481286
Summary: Browser Integration for Microsoft Edge: persistent
messages in Plasma from web applications
Classification: Plasma
Product: plasma-browser-integration
Version: unspecified
Platform: unspecified
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
Hi everyone!
I use MS Edge, a chromium based browser, for the Microsoft Teams/Outlook web
apps (company requirement). I also have installed the Plasma Browser
Integration plugin for Edge (which i assume is the same as for Chrome).
Plasma has a good information messaging system, when something happens, a
persistent dialogue box pops up in the lower right corner (e.g. available
updates, copying of files finished).
However, the MS applications (Teams, Outlook, in the browser) do/can not use
these persistent information boxes; when an event occurs (an appointment
starts, a call comes in, a message/mail arrives), a message pops up for only a
few seconds and then vanishes again. I assume that this happens independently
from the plasma browser integration.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install MS Edge (from a Microsoft repository, available for .rpm and .deb
based distributions)
2. Log into an MS Teams account
3. Install Teams as WebApp
4. Create & wait for a Teams event (Appointment in Calendar, incoming call,
incoming chat message)
5. See a dialogue box popping up and vanishing after a few seconds
OBSERVED RESULT
The information box is only visible for a few seconds
EXPECTED RESULT
The information box is visible until it is manually closed or replaced agains a
new box (e.g. when the caller closes the call, the appointment is over).
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: Kernel 6.7.2
KDE Plasma Version: 5.27.10
KDE Frameworks Version: 5.114.0
Qt Version: 5.15.12
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
I think the first question is, if there is already an API in the browser
integration available, which is able to provide a persistent message (until the
message has to be modified or is manually closed).
If yes: I will open a ticket at Microsoft Teams WebApp support.
If no: I suggest to implement an extension, so that web application can create
persistent information boxes.
