            Bug ID: 361170
           Summary: breeze sddm theme login screen should use a specific
                    font (Noto Sans?)
           Product: Breeze
           Version: 5.6.0
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: minor
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: plasma-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: nplatis at gmail.com

I am using the breeze sddm theme, and the login screen uses some (not exactly)
arbitrary font for its text components: on one of my computers it is picking up
Arial Black, on another Arial Narrow -- probably the first font that it finds.

I noticed that the lock screen picks up my KDE font, so this is OK.

I believe that the login screen should use some specific font, and since Noto
Sans is currently the default KDE font (and most probably installed along with
breeze sddm theme) it is a natural choice. Allowing the login screen to use an
arbitrary font reduces visual consistency and may lead to an "ugly" login
screen while the first impression always matters!

Reproducible: Always
