here is the technical limitation is that is not possible any continuous animation between the login screen and the actual desktop: they are different sessions (possibily even different graphics system) so at most would be possible a fade to black after successful login and fade from black when the session starts/splashscreen comes in (and *must* be pure black as is the only color in which a flicker frame of black won't be seen) that's why at the moment grub has a pure black background, that's why we do have a splashscreen and has a pure black backgrund as well. to complete that, is still needed the fade to black after successful login which will need some changes in the sddm architecture, but at least in theory technically possible. > Collapse/unfold Action Buttons, > https://share.kde.org/index.php/s/GNiOUySOZq3WM9t that should be easy > Fade to Desktop (Already implemented apparently), > https://share.kde.org/index.php/s/srWhKERNid3UXRc is there, tough from splashscreen to desktop, which can't have the same content as the login screen -- Marco Martin
