Your system information

  • Steam client version (build number or date): 1742591487
  • Distribution (e.g. Ubuntu): Arch Linux
  • Opted into Steam client beta?: Yes
  • Have you checked for system updates?: Yes
  • Steam Logs: steam-logs.tar.gz
  • GPU: AMD

Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:

Attempting to save community-posted screenshots from the Steam Client will open a portal window that allows you to save the screenshot to disk. However, the dialog does not have a meaningful title, it shows as "xdg-desktop-portal-kde". It should have some kind of title like "Save Image".

Steps for reproducing this issue:

  1. Attempt to save a screenshot from the Community Content section of the Steam Client.
  2. The dialog that opens will have a generic (default?) title, when it should have a more meaningful title.

Hello @sonic2kk, as far as I know, this is the correct behavior. Steam is calling xdg-desktop-portal at which point your (or your desktop environment's) configured preference gets called. Unless there's an API handoff of a preferred title, this is outside of Steam's control.
