Hello!
I have been fighting tooth and nail to get the SDDM to reflect the Plasma settings. I have a duo monitor set up and I have taken the following steps to try to fix the issue.
- Disable the second monitor in the Display Settings
- Return to the Themes, SDDM page
- Apply Plasma Settings
- Re-select the SDDM (Default Dragonized Sweet)
- Apply changes one more again
- Restart PC
That did not work, so I checked the sddm.conf in etc and it was blank with no changes made. I then retrieved an example document and attempted to re-try the steps above with no success.
