Onscreen keyboard not recognised

Open john270 opened this issue 1 month ago • 0 comments

Thanks for this guide and install - I've just set up Rog Ally with SteamOS dual boot and have Vortex fully working with external mouse & keyboard.

However if I use without peripheries everything still works ok except I can not enter any text using the onscreen keyboard:

  • I can select the text entry box (such as search box on mods tab to filter)
  • I can display the onscreen keyboard
  • I can 'type' but the keyboard presses are not recognised in the text box

I tried to follow the 'download with vortex button link handler' fix but I do not have 'mimeapps.list' file anywhere I can locate.

I'm loading Vortex strictly from SteamOS desktop mode (not as a non-steam game added to steam). Having Steam open (as suggested by google, doesn't make any difference though).

Thanks
