Bug ID: 47325
           Summary: Steam Login: cannot select Account Name or Password
                    text boxes when emulating a Virtual Desktop
           Product: Wine
           Version: 4.9
          Hardware: x86
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown
          Assignee: [e-mail]
          Reporter: [e-mail]
      Distribution: ---

Steps to reproduce:

* Emulate a virtual desktop through winecfg.
* Install and run Steam.  Proceed to the login prompt.
* Attempt to select the "Account name" and "Password" textboxes.

Expected Behavior:

Textbox is selected when it is clicked on, i.e. it displays a flashing cursor
and characters accumulate in it when keys are pressed.

Actual Behavior:

Textbox is not selected.  No cursor is displayed, and it does not respond to
key presses.

Easy Workaround:

Grab and move the steam login window inside of the virtual desktop.  After
doing this it becomes possible to select the text boxes in the window and enter
Account Name and Password.

I am using Wine 7.20 on Exagear 3.0.2 (Android 11) and the problem persists.
Entering letters in the user and password line does not work. No cursor is
displayed, and it does not respond to key presses.

It doesn't matter if virtual desktop is set or not.

Grabing and moving the steam login window inside of the virtual desktop has NO
effect.(In reply to jeffersoncarpenter2 from comment #0)

Confirming this.

This isn't working for me.

The following line prints when trying to enter either textbox:
0124:fixme:msctf:TextStoreACPSink_OnLayoutChange STUB:(00000000028E49C0)

I tried "winetricks tahoma" for luck but it made no difference, "winetricks
corefonts" works though. The same fixme above still prints in the console even
with this workaround, so may not be relevant.

"winetricks arial" is the workaround, after which the log-in hangs. I'll open a
new bug report for that.

Staging 8.12 does not suffer from this bug. I suspect it might be thanks to
0001-fonts-Add-Liberation-Sans-as-an-Arial-replacement.patch but patch wouldn't
let me apply the patch to confirm.

Can't recreate reliably so I'll leave that for now. The vast majority of the
time "winetricks arial" is enough to get into the app. There are other bugs
logged against Steam though.

Likely the replacement fonts.
