[New UI] Find in Page doesn't work
Hello @sonic2kk, can you test if the same behavior happens with a KDE / X user session?
It will be on a different machine but yes I will test and report back (switching between Wayland/X session on KDE is a little touchy, so don't want to do that on my main PC)
Hello @sonic2kk, can you test if the same behavior happens with a KDE / X user session?
It is. https://steamcommunity.com/groups/SteamClientBeta/discussions/3/6861841362661980903/
Can confirm, broken on X11 on SteamOS.
Find in Page still does not work, but the focus issue appears to be resolved. The textbox for Find in Page still does not accept any input. The cursor appears and the textbox can be focused/unfocusd, it is only input that does not work.
There is also an issue where when the Find in Pagef textbox is shown, if Steam is minimised, or moved behind another window, then it will display on top of all windows. When the Steam client window is dragged, the client window itself moves but at a a slower rate than the client window moves, so there is a noticeable delay.
When the textbox is active and the Steam client window is dragged, the textbox will also decouple itself from the client. Below are screenshots of the textbox relative to the Steam client window after being dragged across my monitors.
I'm not entirely sure what determines the place it spawns in. I've had it spawn on middle right and now it spawns in the center. I've also had people say theirs spaws at bottom middle right on top of the downloads indicator. https://youtu.be/CA2As_pE7dg
It used to be that the feature didn't work at all by not allowing me to type.
Sometimes the dialog spawns in the wrong place but the feature works now, so I will close this issue.
I still have the same issue since the same period.
I have the same setup as @sonic2kk , but with the latest Steam version, of course.
- Steam client version (build number or date): 1737514353 - Wed, Jan 22 3:35 UTC -08:00
- Distribution (e.g. Ubuntu): Arch Linux (KDE Plasma Wayland)
- Opted into Steam client beta?: No, but It's the same with the Beta Client
- Have you checked for system updates?: Yes
In the past I managed to trick the input box and trigger some input (only some keystrokes appeared in the input box), but I can't reproduce it anymore.
Nothing extracted yet.
Your system information
Please describe your issue in as much detail as possible:
Using Ctrl+F on web pages in the Steam Client, such as the Store Page, News Page, Profiles, etc, does not work properly. The find bar will appear in the top right, but clicking into it and typing does nothing.
If a textbox from another application is focued (excluding textboxes within the Steam Client), such as a browser search box, even after clicking on the Find in Page search box in Steam, the text input will register with the application whose textbox has focus.
This does not affect web pages opened with the Steam Overlay (tested Steam Workshop and Web Browser).
