!steamdeck@sopuli.xyz

This community was created years ago by a now inactive member and left languishing all that time. I have now been handed this community and think of it as an extension to !steamdeck@sopuli.xyz, basically for stuff that's related to SteamOS and SteamOS hardware but maybe a bit out of scope of the main community, notably non-Valve SteamOS hardware – either custom builds or by OEMs like Lenovo that licensed SteamOS.

Stuff about Valve's own hardware can be posted here. I will not make a rule that forbids that, but IMO !steamdeck@sopuli.xyz is the main comm and I will keep posting there and possibly cross-posting here.

1. Screenshot hotkey — Press F12 to take a screenshot. The game window is captured before the overlay renders, then saved as PNG. The hotkey uses rising-edge detection with a 1-second cooldown to avoid accidental duplicates.

2. Screenshot gallery — Browse all screenshots from the overlay main menu. Thumbnails load lazily, sorted by date. Click a thumbnail to open a preview with Prev/Next navigation, Pin, Crop, and Delete buttons. Multi-select works with Shift (range) and Ctrl (toggle). Deleting removes the file and any associated metadata.

3. Pinned screenshots — Pin any screenshot to create a floating window. Drag, resize, and adjust opacity while the overlay is open. When the overlay closes, pinned windows become click-through so they don't block your game. Close pins individually with the X button or all at once from the gallery.

4. Crop tool — Crop a screenshot before pinning it from the preview, or crop an existing pinned screenshot.

5. Settings:

  • [overlay::hotkeys] → screenshot_combo — hotkey to take a screenshot (default: f12)
  • [overlay::appearance] → Notification_Duration_Screenshot — notification duration in seconds (default: 1.0)

This is why Steam Machine is over 1000 USD/Euro.
