Description Petr Nehez 2017-07-18 07:20:37 UTC

The password input field on the lock screen is growing by 1px when I start to type a password into it - when it is empty it is shorter in the height than if it contains a text.

Could anybody update /kscreenlocker/greeter/fallbacktheme/Greeter.qml and set a (minimal?) height of the TextField with id=password?

I know this is stupid issue but it does not look well.

I can reproduce this in git master as well as 5.12 with the Ubuntu font at any size. Seems the Ubuntu font's round dot character is taller than most, which makes the text field want to grow taller.

This was fixed with a bunch of changes a few months ago!
