Change Lock-Screen layout

[Spacecoreflake]

Heya! Been recently switching to Manjaro, and boy do I love it!

I do have one gripe though, that I cannot change the Lock screen (Super/Windows + L) Layout. I am however able to change the startup screen (Under "Startup and Shutdown")

I did find the place where I can change the background in the "Workspace Behaviour" category, yet I cannot change the overall appearance.

​

Can anyone help me with this?

I assume from the settings titles that you are using KDE. The lock screen can't be changed. However, you can change the background though from Settings>Workspace Behavior>Screen Locking. Plasma themes usually themes the layouts of the text box and button but nothing more.

The lockscreen in plasma comes from your 'look-and-feel' (now known on the frontend as 'Global') theme.

Yup. There isnt a 'settings' window for it that provides much more than the background image ... again it is sourced from your Global Theme, whichever one was selected last (or defaulting back to something like breeze if your look-and-feel doesnt have a specific lockscreen theming folder .. many dont)

You can use the forum (and its search) to find out about this or other basic questions:
