Customize push notification position in GNOME

Question

How do I change the position of the push notifications? I'm currently running Ubuntu 17.10 but I couldn't find anything in my settings nor online about changing such settings.

I would be very happy to be able to change the position because it's often on top of areas where I want to click or type. A more ideal position for my case would be on the right bottom of the screen. Currently it's position at the center top, have a look at the screenshot below.

You may use a GNOME shell extension called "Panel OSD" to achieve your goal.

This extension lets you configure the position of the notification pop-up.

Works great for me; Ubuntu 20.04 – Kalnode Mar 03 '21 at 14:47
Does this work for Ubuntu 22.04? – Nagabhushan S N Jan 25 '23 at 04:28

This has been abandoned by the original author. Notification banner reloaded worked for me on 22.04. – McAngus Feb 19 '24 at 10:15

You can use the Notification Banner Reloaded addon instead if you're running Ubuntu 21.10 or later. This extension is more advanced and allows you a larger range of notification location options, including top, middle, or bottom, as well as left or right.

Credit.

That's the one, Panel OSD had been abandoned by its original maintainer. This one works just perfect. – João Hamerski Sep 12 '23 at 16:53
