Steam's VirtualKeyboardManager keeps the props of the last focused Steam text
field (m_ActiveElementProps) after leaving the dashboard. With a search box
there, the VR keyboard for a gamescope window showed "Search" on Enter and
its onEnterKeyPress returned "VKClose", hiding the keyboard instead of
sending Return. While the keyboard serves something other than this Steam
UI, ignore those props and the dismiss-on-Enter flag.
- drop cruft: v4 DispatchKeypress undo, unused VKM import and
__vrkbdPatched flag, redundant VRKBD_DISPLAY env in the unit
- one wrap() helper for all replaced functions; key names for the
stylesheet derived from the key definitions instead of repeated
- unpatch: restore every layout ever patched (also ones disabled since)
and the remembered component class instead of walking the tree again
- helper: debounce re-injects after bursts of new JS contexts; resolve
pending DevTools calls when the connection closes
- arrow icons vertically centered again (hint stays at the bottom edge)
- updated header comments
- every bottom-row key gets explicit normal/shift/AltGr variants: in Steam's
stock row the close icon jumps with Shift and keys turn into empty
full-width panels with AltGr
- AltGr + arrows: Pos1 / End / PgUp / PgDn (shown as small hints)
- Shift + arrows go through the helper as real Shift+arrow (Steam's own
arrow path drops Shift), so text selection works
- steamFrame.vrKeyboard -> steamFrame.steamKeyboardPatch (module, service
and script names follow): it patches Steam's own on-screen keyboard
- clipboardSync.enable defaults to true: without it the nested desktop's
clipboard is isolated
- clipboard-sync: stop stale builds and duplicates, prefer the instance
started in the nested desktop, only start a new one when switching from
the nested desktop (an instance inherits the switching shell's session)
- vr-keyboard: the helper reverts the patch on SIGTERM (vrkbd-unpatch.js);
disabling the module stops the service via the new
steamFrame.userServices.stop, so the stock keyboard is back immediately
Portal fix, Steam-session keyboard layout, VR keyboard patch, hidden
apps, clipboard-sync and a Firefox Flatpak launcher, all under
steamFrame.*, plus the outer-session user-services mechanism.
