Walletwasabi: Reopen #2763: [1.1.10] Impossible to unlock when no PIN is set

[davterra]

General Description

As reported by Simone in #2763, if a user clicks on "Lock Wallet" without having first set a PIN, a dropdown screen essentially locks the user out of the wallet. It's not at all intuitive or documented anywhere, but it seems that the only way to open the wallet after going through this procedure is to mouse-drag-upward the large "^" at the bottom of the dropdown page.
At best this is unnecessary, and at worst, very disconcerting for the user.

How To Reproduce?

Click on "Lock Screen, either before setting a PIN or after deleting current PIN.

Proposed Solution:

Eliminate the confusing dropdown screen, and if a user clicks on "Lock Screen" prior to setting a PIN, a message should be produced saying "Set PIN in Settings to enable Lock Screen".

Operating System

Ubuntu 19.04

As much as this issue now has my name on it, if it ends up in the review game pool, any resulting credit to me on this one should be shared with Simone, IMO.

I think it's not "impossible" but more like "unintuitive".. I originally planned to have a text that says: "Drag up to unlock" but that has been NACK'd. @lontivero @molnard @nopara73 should i perhaps add that visual clue back? or just get rid of the SlideLockScreen entirely?

[nopara73]

Yes, we didn't think this is going to be an issue. We kinda have no choice now after the second user is experiencing difficulties with it. Let's put back the drag the screen upwards text.

I'll add this to the painful issues.

I still think it is more clear to just eliminate the dropdown screen and if "Lock Screen" is triggered without a PIN, have a message box tell the user to create a PIN in settings to enable Lock Screen.

As a user, the first time I clicked on "Lock Screen" was an accident. My intent was to click on "Exit".
When the dropdown screen came down, it was disconcerting, because I actually thought that was
the "lock", and I didnt remember ever setting a PIN. It took me a couple of minutes to figure out that dragging the "^" would open the window.

It just seems unnecessary at best, and potentially confusing/alarming.
