Description BOF 2022-04-25 14:53:51 UTC
SUMMARY
Before you login to the OS you see the lock screen with various UI elements.
I have set my _Tap to click_ to true for my touchpad. This setting is not correctly applied on the clock screen. I still have to 'click' on the touchpad (a 'tap' is not rnough)


STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Set 'Tap to click' to true in the Touchpad settings.
2. Start the OS
3. Try to use any UI element (eg. restart, shutdown, wayland/X11 selector) with tab to click

OBSERVED RESULT
Tab to click does not work.

EXPECTED RESULT
If set so, Tab to click should work

You're talking about the login screen, not the lock screen. Does it work if you apply your Plasma settings to SDDM using System Settings > Startup and Shutdown > Login Screen (SDDM) > Apply Plasma settings?

I tried this. It still is press down to click.
(And to be honest I would have thought of these settings as 'global' settings. Even they may seem to be not, I would at least expect the settings app to take care of this if I change it at one end)
