A Screencast That Demonstrates The Problem

SUMMARY

When the fingerprint authentication method description is visible in the User KCM, the user is able to horizontally scroll the width of the form past the LTR/RTL boundary-side of the form.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE

1. Connect a fingerprint sensor.

2. Set the language to `en_GB`.

3. Invoke `kcm_users` (in `kcmshell6` or `systemsettings`).

4. Scroll right.

OBSERVED RESULT

I am able to scroll past the boundary of the form, such that I see nothing.

EXPECTED RESULT

I should be unable to scroll horizontally when nothing is obscured.

In retrospect, this may require an HID like the Logitech MX Master 3S, for it provides a horizontal scroll wheel. I presume that such an action can be bound to a key combination, but I know not how to.

Can you reproduce this with normal settings, e.g. the default minimum window size, proportional fonts, etc?

It indeed used to reproduce with a full-screen or half-width window. However, after updating, it appears to have been fixed:

Apologies; didn't realise that I wasn't updated when I filed the report. I think I must have accidentally been offline. Close as RESOLVED FIXED or WORKSFORME?
