A very customizableSDDM theme that places controls on your screen corners.

I couldn't really find a preexisting theme that I liked, so I made my own. Layout inspired bysddm-chinese-painting-theme.

This theme does not require KDE Plasma, so make sure you have Qt 5 installed!

• SDDM
• Qt 5
• Qt Graphical Effects
• Qt SVG
• Qt Quick Controls 2

On Arch, run

pacman -Syu sddm qt5-graphicaleffects qt5-svg qt5-quickcontrols2

For Arch users, the theme is available from the AURhere. Install it with your favorite AUR helper:

paru sddm-theme-corners-git

On other distros, download/clone this repo, and copy thecorners/ folder to/usr/share/sddm/themes/.

git clone https://github.com/aczw/sddm-theme-corners.gitcd sddm-theme-corners/sudo cp -r corners/ /usr/share/sddm/themes/

Figured people would want to tinker on their own, so font, colors, size, corner radius, and more can all be configured. Please seeCONFIG.md for a description of what each option does!

If you haven't already, make sure to change the current theme that SDDM is using. On Arch, create a.conf file in/etc/sddm.conf.d/ with the following contents:

[Theme]Current=corners

Check theArch Wiki for more info.

You'll definitely want to configure the theme before using it. Out of the box it usesAtkinson Hyperlegible for the font and assumes a screen DPI of 216 (basically, my setup).

Edittheme.conf (insidecorners/) as you see fit. I tried making most stuff customizable, but lemme know if you want more options.

That's pretty much it :) I hope you enjoy the theme. Feedback is much appreciated!!
