Description

This pull request improves the Hyprlock user experience by ensuring the active keyboard layout is always visible before entering the password. This is essential for users who regularly switch between multiple layouts.

Context

Previously, Hyprlock hid the placeholder text after a short timeout, making it unclear which keyboard layout was active before typing a password.
This caused authentication mistakes and unnecessary retries for users with multiple layouts (e.g., DE/EN/HR...).
The update ensures the layout is always visible, improving consistency and usability.

How Has This Been Tested?

  • Tested on Arch Linux/Based Distro.
  • Tested on Fedora Linux/Based Distro.
  • Tested on openSuse.
