Fairphone 5: lock screen clock in landscape mode takes almost screen space

  • /e/ version: 2.1-t-20240603406607-stable-FP5
  • Device model(s): Fairphone 5
  • Developer mode enabled: yes
  • Device rooted: yes
  • Trackers blocker enabled: yes

Summary

In landscape mode (= with lockscreen rotation ON), the lock screen clock takes up almost all the usable lock screen space.

The problem

  1. Turn on lock screen rotation
  2. Turn on lock screen multimedia control
  3. Lock the screen in landscape mode

What is the current behavior?

The clock is huge, and the other lock screen elements (multimedia control, notifications, etc) are display below it, partially or fully out of the screen.

What is the expected correct behavior?

The clock should occupy the top-left side of the lock screen, the multimedia control the top-right, and the notification the bottom of the lock screen.
