### Animated Shader (GLSL)
> **Note**: Requires OpenGL 2.1+ support (GPUs from 2010+). For very old hardware, it is recommended to use **Static Image** mode. ## Features * **LTMNight Styling** — **Deep Dark** backgrounds, **Vibrant** accents, and **Fluid** interactions. * **Animated Shader** — Procedural, GPU-native background using GLSL and Qt Shader Baker. * **Live Backgrounds** — Supports MP4, WebM, MKV, and animated GIFs. * **Partial Blur** — Frosted glass effect behind the login form. * **Dynamic Hostname** — Personalized header showing your machine's name. * **Virtual Keyboard** — Toggle in top-left corner, auto-show option for touch devices. * **Session Selector** — Dropdown centered at the bottom to choose your desktop environment. * **Keyboard Layout** — Globe icon in top-right corner to switch input languages. * **Multi-Language** — 15 languages with auto-detection, RTL support for Arabic/Persian/Urdu. * **Accessibility** — Screen reader‑friendly roles and names across core UI (Clock, System Buttons, Keyboard Layout, Session Selector, Login Input). * **HiDPI Ready** — Auto-scales UI based on screen resolution. ## Dependencies | Package | Arch | Fedora | Debian/Ubuntu | |---------|------|--------|---------------| | SDDM (Qt6) | `sddm` | `sddm` | `sddm` | | Qt6 Quick | `qt6-declarative` | `qt6-qtdeclarative` | `qml6-module-qtquick-*` | | Qt6 SVG | `qt6-svg` | `qt6-qtsvg` | `libqt6svg6` | | Qt6 Multimedia | `qt6-multimedia-ffmpeg` | `qt6-qtmultimedia` | `qml6-module-qtmultimedia` | | Font | `ttf-jetbrains-mono` | `jetbrains-mono-fonts` | `fonts-jetbrains-mono` | | Virtual Keyboard | `qt6-virtualkeyboard` | `qt6-qtvirtualkeyboard` | `qml6-module-qtquick-virtualkeyboard` | ## Installation ### One-Line Install (Recommended) ```bash curl -sSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/hyprltm/ltmnight-sddm-theme/main/setup.sh | sudo bash ``` > The installer is interactive and will ask for your preferences on: > * **Background Style** (Static Image, Live Video, or Animated LTMNight Shader) > * **Virtual Keyboard** (Disabled, Manual, or Touch Mode) ### Install via AUR (Arch & Manjaro) ```bash yay -S ltmnight-sddm-theme ``` > [!NOTE] > After installing, run `sudo ltmnight-sddm-configurator` to customize the background and Virtual Keyboard! ### Install via KDE System Settings If you are using **KDE Plasma**, you can install the theme directly via **KDE System Settings**. > [!NOTE] > This requires the **SDDM KCM** module (usually installed as `sddm-kcm` or part of `plasma-desktop`). 1. Go to **System Settings** > **Login Screen (SDDM)**. 2. Click **"Get New SDDM Themes..."**. 3. Search for **"LTMNight SDDM Theme"**. 4. Click **Install**. > [!TIP] > To customize the theme (Background/Keyboard) after installing: > ```bash > sudo /usr/share/sddm/themes/ltmnight/setup.sh > ``` ### Manual 1. Copy the following folders/files to `/usr/share/sddm/themes/ltmnight`: * `Assets/` * `Backgrounds/` * `Components/` * `Themes/` * `i18n/` * `Main.qml` * `metadata.desktop` 2. Edit `/etc/sddm.conf.d/theme.conf`: ```ini [Theme] Current=ltmnight ``` ## Customization Create a user config file (won't be overwritten on updates): ``` /usr/share/sddm/themes/ltmnight/Themes/hyprltm.conf.user ``` **Example:** ```ini [General] HideVirtualKeyboard="true" Background="ltmnight" # Use "ltmnight" for the shader, or path to image/video ``` ### Available Options All options are in the theme config. Key ones: | Option | Description | |--------|-------------| | `Background` | `path/to/file` or `"ltmnight"` (Shader) | | `PartialBlur` | `"true"` or `"false"` to enable blur behind login form | | `FormPosition` | `left`, `center`, or `right` | | `HourFormat` | Time format (e.g., `HH:mm`) | | `HeaderText` | Custom header text | | `HideVirtualKeyboard` | Set to `true` to hide on-screen keyboard | ### High DPI & Scaling The theme automatically scales UI elements based on screen height. **Note**: SDDM v0.20.0+ enables HiDPI support by default. You only need to configure the following for custom **Fractional Scaling** (e.g., 125% or 150%): Create `/etc/sddm.conf.d/hidpi.conf`: ```ini [General] GreeterEnvironment=QT_SCREEN_SCALE_FACTORS=2,QT_FONT_DPI=192 ``` ## Testing Preview the theme without logging out: ```bash sddm-greeter-qt6 --test-mode --theme $(pwd) ``` ### Virtual Keyboard **Three modes** (configured via install script): | Mode | Use Case | Auto-Show | Toggle Button | |------|----------|-----------|---------------| | **Disabled** | Desktop with physical keyboard | No | Hidden | | **Manual** | Security / broken keyboard | No | Visible | | **Touch** | Tablet / touchscreen | Yes | Visible | **Manual configuration** (if not using install script): 1. Create `/etc/sddm.conf.d/virtualkeyboard.conf`: ```ini [General] InputMethod=qtvirtualkeyboard ``` 2. Create `hyprltm.conf.user` in theme folder: ```ini [General] HideVirtualKeyboard="false" VirtualKeyboardAutoShow="false" # or "true" for touch mode ``` ## ❤️ Support the Project If you find this theme helpful, there are many ways to support the project: ### Financial Support If you'd like to support the development financially:
