Hi,

is there a way to make notifications stay a little longer on screen ?

( and eventually change their position… )

Did not see such settings in dconf editor.

It isn’t difficult to implement. Just really a question if where to put the minimum maximum second scroll fields on the gui

In settings / notifications ? But there it means it’s a gnome thing…

Or through a notification applet, to create - something like [https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/708/panel-osd/](https://extensions.gnome.org/extension/708/panel-osd/) ?

Or somewhere into Raven, in notifications tab ?

budgie-desktop v10.5 notification handling has been mostly now been backported in a SRU release of budgie-desktop for v18.04

Hovering over a notification stops the notification disappearing.

Notifications are no longer huge - correctly truncated.
