Hello, I’m so sorry for asking this question. My virtual keyboard, last year, was on the bottom-center screen, but this year is on the top-center. It overlaying the login screen. How to configure the position of virtual keyboard login screen KDE plasma SDDM?
On the arch wiki (wiki. archlinux. org/index.php/SDDM), It only explains how to enable virtual keyboard, and I couldn’t find on system settings about virtual keyboard.

Install [qt5-virtualkeyboard]
 Create the following file:
        /etc/sddm.conf.d/virtualkbd.conf

    [General] InputMethod=qtvirtualkeyboard

SDDM now displays a button in lower-left corner of login screen to open the virtual keyboard.

Thank you

May it depend on theme? In themes (/usr/share/sddm/themes) i saw files named KeyboardButton.qml, KeyboardLayoutButton.qml and VirtualKeyboard.qml. If you know how you may edit them.

I compare it with KDE neon files on VM and it almost the same script. KDE neon has the same behavior with a virtual keyboard on the top center anchor layout. :sweat_smile: :sweat_smile:

Thank you.
