Description kdebugs8 2026-02-03 22:08:28 UTC
SUMMARY
So the credentials etc. that are hidden after no mouse or keyboard movement don't pop back in with pressing keyboard keys.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Wait for the login manager to hide the credentials block etc.
2. Press keyboard keys.
3. Notice that the credentials, user etc. are not popped back in. Only pops back in after pressing Enter or moving mouse. Making you have to press Enter twice after you have entered your password in when those are hidden. 

OBSERVED RESULT
The hidden logins do not show when pressing keys other than Enter.

EXPECTED RESULT
When pressing a key you would have logins like credentials users etc. showed to you instead of hidden.

This should be fixed in the Plasma 6.6.0 release of PLM.
