Hey guys,

I have configured the right-top corner of the screen to activate the Sleep Display, and also have activated the "Require password password to wake this computer from sleep or screen saver". For some reason the computer doesn't ask for my password when I wake the screen up, as it used to on Tiger.

TIA,
Hg+

I guess 'Sleep Display' doesn't count as "to wake this computer from sleep or screen saver", so you better use the corner to activate the screen saver or go to Keychain Access where <preferences> you can find this option you may like to use.

Thank you!

If I click on "Lock Screen" and rapidly go to the assigned corner I get a locked display asleep.
