SteamVR:

• Fixed a bug in the input binding UI that would prevent users from toggling to a custom binding if the application did not have default bindings.
  
• The input binding UI’s ‘Show Bindings on Controller’ button no longer appears if no binding is loaded.
  
• Match overlay control bar width to width of Desktop/Window Views when docked on the dashboard.
  

OpenXR:

• Prioritize use of Oculus Touch-style bindings if no bindings were provided for the active controller and khr_simple_controller bindings were provided.
  
• Set the universeid of currently tracked lighthouse devices on a per device basis - this helps ensure that the active hmd's universeid is used in a multi-tracking system config (i.e. setting "activateMultipleDrivers": true in vrsettings).
  
• Enable “Handheld” role for trackers. Assigning either “Left Hand”, “Right Hand” or “Any Hand” in the SteamVR > Devices > Manage Trackers will map to this “Handheld” role in OpenXR.
  
• Fix for issue with trackers not using subaction paths for actionspaces.
