Hello,
Is it possibe to select a user using the mouse from SDDM login screen? It shows available users in big circles (with photos), but the only way to select a user is to use left and right arrow keys. There is no effect of clicking on the circles. I thought its a quirk of the default Fedora theme and tried another from 'get new theme'. But that too has the same behaiour.
Is this a theme thing? Or does SDDM interface only support selection by keyboard? I feel the UI makes us instinctiely think that selection can be made by clicking.

I have no problem to click on a user's circle to select. I'm using a Kensington Trackball as my mouse. F32 system.

Your feedback was very helpful. Thank you. Apparently, it works for me as well. Just that trackpad tap was not working on the login screen. It works only inside KDE environment. Clicking using the dedicated button works on the login screen.
Thanks,
