Bug ID: 444243
Summary: Notifications disappear below current window on click
Product: kwin
Version: 5.23.1
Platform: Manjaro
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: major
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: kwin-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: yule2...@live.com
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When I click anywhere on a Plasma notification, it hides below the active
window.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Ensure that there is a window on the corner of your screen where you expect
the notification would appear
2. Make any app send a notification (I used the `notify-send` command on the
terminal to easily reproduce this bug)
3. Click anywhere on the notification
OBSERVED RESULT
The clicked notification is hidden below the active window. When there the
active window is maximized or covers the entire area where the notification
appeared, it would simply disappear instead.
EXPECTED RESULT
Notifications would always stay on top of all windows every time they are
clicked, just like in older versions of Plasma before 5.23.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
This sometimes causes the fadeout effect to appear glitchy when you dismiss the
notification by clicking on the close button, but the effect itself is not
broken. In addition, changing focus prevention settings or even removing all
window rules did nothing to work around this behavior. As far as I know, the
5.23 update introduced this bug; I've never encountered this behavior in any
older version of Plasma.
