RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description of problem:
circles-light and circles-dark wallpaper doesn't look very well on lock screen since time and date si rendered right on new logo and Red Hat Enterpsise linux label. Please see the attached screenshot. It's not a big issue but it not looking good either.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
The bug is supposed to be filled for redhat-background package, but I couldn't find it in the list, so I hope it will find the right people.

redhat-backgrounds-80.7-1.el8.noarch

How reproducible:
always
 
Steps to Reproduce:
1.Toggle gnome-shell overview with super key
2.Type Background
3.Click on Lock Screen and se wallpaper to either circles-light or circles dark

Actual results:
Date and time is not very readable on lock screen as the wallpaper test is shown right behind it. 

Expected results:
Test and logo could be move more toward the top of bottom of the screen.

I think it's probably okay if some of the wallpapers only look good as backgrounds and don't look good on the lock screen.

as long as the lock screen background we choose by default looks good.
Comment 2 Ray Strode [halfline] 2019-06-17 14:15:19 UTC 
Allan, do you have any thoughts on this?

I guess if we did want to fix this we could:

1) hide backgrounds not suitable for lock screen by default when selecting lock screen
2) interface with brand team about redesigning the background so it works fine in both contexts
3) provide two different background variants one with the product logo centered and one without,
and auto select the right variant based on if user is choosing wallpaper or lock screen

I think my inclination is still WONTFIX but if you feel strongly we can reopen.

> Allan, do you have any thoughts on this?

I agree that this is an issue, and have reported similar issues elsewhere.

Ideally one of the wallpaper guidelines would be to avoid layouts that clash with the time and date on the lock screen. We should certainly speak to the brand team about that.

Options 1 and 3 conflict a bit with where the background settings are going - in the latest upstream version we actually advertise setting the lock screen and desktop backgrounds simultaneously.
Comment 5 Ray Strode [halfline] 2019-06-17 14:30:16 UTC 
reopening.
Comment 8 Ray Strode [halfline] 2019-08-12 20:39:32 UTC 
brand team sent new content, bumping up to 8.1
