screenshot of broken settings for picture of the day in screen locking

SUMMARY
Picture of the day in the screen locking section isn't easily configurable, because the menus only show a 1 pixel line to be configure from

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Navigate to System Settings > Workspace > Workspace Behaviour > Screen Locking > Appearance
2. Select "Picture of the day"
3. Try to configure it.

OBSERVED RESULT
Menus to configure Picture of the day in Screen Locking > Appearance are hard to click as they only display a 1 pixel vertical line

EXPECTED RESULT
Configurable picture of the day layout, such as with configuring one's wallpaper.

Well that's odd. It's working for me. Do you see the same thing when you Right-click on plasma desktop > Configure Desktop? Or is it only here in the Screen locking page?

However the greater issue is that even if the configuration interface was working for you, POTD wallpapers are unusable on the lock screen:  bug 389962.

Hey Nate,

Thanks for getting back to me :-) Configuring the wallpaper through right clicking on the desktop works just fine, which is why I was surprised the lock screen wasn't working properly.

Indeed, when I configure the wallpaper to use Wallpaper of the Day (I've only tested this with unsplash), the lock screen remains black.

I see the exact same thing as Jeffrey, also running Neon. The Drop down is corrupted exactly the same way as per the screenshot.
