Screen locker with Breeze AlphaBlack style

SUMMARY
I am using a theme from the KDE Store so I can make my panel purple:

https://store.kde.org/p/1084931/

Recently, my lock screen has been tinting the wallpaper to be bright, making the text hard to read, when it should be tinting it dark, since Breeze AlphaBlack is a dark theme.


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Install Breeze AlphaBlack from Get New Plasma Styles
2. Lock the screen
3. Move the mouse

OBSERVED RESULT
The background is brightened to an uncomfortable level, making it hard to read the text.

EXPECTED RESULT
The background should be darkened.

Currently working around this by modifying a copy of the Breeze Dark theme.
Comment 3 Nate Graham 2020-10-26 17:51:42 UTC
The lock screen appearance comes from the Plasma theme, so this is a bug in that theme. Please report it to them. Thanks!
