Steam Deck Beta Client Update: May 25th

Note: This update is for the Steam Deck Beta and Preview channels, and includes new features that are still being tested. You can opt into this in Settings > System > System Update Channel.

The Steam Client Beta has been updated with the following changes:

General
  • Added initial support for Notes in the Overlay. This allows for basic editing--the more advanced formatting features are not currently available.


Desktop Mode
  • Fixed issues with listing and adding flatpaks as non-Steam shortcuts.
  • The minimum size for Small mode has been changed to match the current minimum size in the non-beta Steam Client.
  • Remote Play: show MB/s instead of KB/s in the bandwidth rate settings.
  • Fixed handling of steam://url/WorkshopEula//.
  • Fixed soft-lock when a web page would call the Javascript functions alert() or confirm(). This was reproduceable creating a guide or collection and not providing an image or a title.
  • Fixed scrolling issue in the new Achievements panel, where the bottom part of the panel could not be reached if the main client window was short enough.
  • Fixed IME context menu displaying behind some UI.
  • Fixed IME issues when writing new text with some existing text after the input cursor.
  • Fixed issue setting the uncompressed screenshots directory.
