Show window for transfering and extracting files in KDE Plasma 5












4














Usually in DE's when you start copy files there window appear at center of screen (progress of copy process). But in Kubuntu 18.04 it only gonna be shown on notification area on the panel. It's confusing: sometime I think that there some bug and copying process didn't begin. So I repeat it several times, until I notice progress circle on the panel.
How could I make it less confusing ?

          KDE Frameworks 5 and Plasma 5 notifications



          As default the plasma 5 desktop is showing copy progress in the task buttons and in the notifications:



          enter image description here



          Task manager setting: "Show progress and status information in task buttons"



          enter image description here



          Notification Settings: "Track file transfer and other jobs"



          enter image description here



          If both (task button progress & notification transfer) settings are disabled the traditional file transfer window will be shown:



          enter image description here



          Plasma setting changes may need to restart the plasmashell - logout and login.
