Large Clock showing on Lock Screen

It looks like the Apple large clock is suddenly appearing on the login screen, blocking the local login and shutdown buttons. I’ve already tried disabling the large clock setting in System Preferences, but it’s still showing. Additionally, there doesn’t seem to be an option to hide it using the plist.

The change in positioning of the login window in Jamf Connect v2.45.0 is by design.

As per Jamf's release notes for v2.45.0: "The Jamf Connect login window is redesigned to resemble the native login window on macOS 14 or later. This redesign applies to local login and network authentication user experiences."

Just as a follow up, we are using JamfConnect 2.45.0, MacOS 14.7.2 (been running fine for a couple months until today)

I believe the buttons have moved from the bottom to the top right.

Thanks for this, was not expecting it to be a feature, thought it was a bug. Guess I'll start reading the release notes from now on.
