Description Matthias Clasen 2013-09-19 11:39:54 UTC 
When I lift the shield, the password entry appears at first grayed out. If I type fast enough, I can actually manage to loose a few characters before the shield is fully up and the entry becomes sensitive.

I find this confusing, in particular because I can also type to lift the shield.

The entry should just appear sensitive from the start

Uhm... is it really insensitive, or is it just not focused?
Comment 2 Bastien Nocera 2014-11-09 17:45:33 UTC 
I usually type my password directly at the lock screen, without losing typed characters. Do you still see that problem Matthias?
Comment 3 Matthias Clasen 2014-11-10 15:03:23 UTC
