Description grayich 2025-12-17 16:48:15 UTC
in the /usr/share/plasma/shells/org.kde.plasma.desktop/contents/lockscreen/LockScreenUi.qml file :
        Timer {
            id: graceLockTimer
            interval: 3000
            onTriggered: {
                root.clearPassword();
                authenticator.startAuthenticating();
            }
interval 3000 is very much, because this value is added to the system one (usually 3000), in total it turns out 6000++

IMHO, it's worth changing the value to 0 or 1

At the same time, in the /usr/share/plasma/look-and-feel/org.kde.breeze.desktop/contents/logout/Logout.qml file, you can reduce the "property real timeout: 30" to 5, IMHO - 30 is too much

thanks

We need to sync it up to the system value rather than selecting which random hardcoded value to choose as that will still be equally wrong.
