Just in case, I am talking about Plasma 1 :)
That's what i thought as well, but when i right click it (and i really right click the notification cricle!) then i get: - System tray settings - Panel options So i can't change it from the tray! Why? Another observation. When i add the notification just as plasmoid to the desktop then i do have a "Notification Settings" when i right click it.. Something very weird is going on in the tray! _______________________________________________ Plasma-devel mailing list Plasma-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/plasma-devel
