            Bug ID: 347123
           Summary: OSD is distracting and annoying
           Product: Breeze
           Version: 5.2.2
          Platform: Archlinux Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: plasma-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: Ondrej.Machulda at seznam.cz

The On Screen Display in Plasma 5 is really annoying and much bigger than in
KDE 4. Previously, the OSD in KDE 4 was located in the bottom of the screen and
its height was quite low (like 30 px). So when any OSD action (volume change,
screen brightness change etc.) occured, one was not distracted from its work,
but still could read the information if wanted.

Now the OSD appears almost in the middle of the screen as a 250x big square,
totally distracting you from what you are doing. I still want the information
it reads (so disabling OSD is not what I want), but I don't wan't it to cover
my work for almost 2 seconds.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Trigger any OSD action (display brightness change, volume up/down/mute in
kmix etc.)

Actual Results:  
Big 250px square with OSD information appears above other windows, almost in
the middle of the screen.

Expected Results:  
OSD should be smaller, and/or placed elsewhere (on the bottom of the screen
like in KDE 4 etc.)
