Hi, I have problem with not working context menu in Steam, I can click on element, but steam thinks I clicked on thing under it. For example: I right clicking on game on game list, hovering over "Manage" and then clicking on "Uninstall", instead of uninstalling prompt Steam thinks I clicked on game that is under context menu. Same in settings, when I want to enable FPS counter. I have this problem on both my installations (PC and laptop), both are running Steam from Flatpak in LXQt.

#EDIT
I did some tests and this problem doesn't occur in Wayfire (wayland).

I had the same problem, solved by enabling Steam -> Settings -> Interface -> Enable context menu focus compatibility mode.

It fixed problem in settings and partially in context menu when I right click on game. When I right click on game elements "PLAY", "Add to Favorites" and "Properties…" are working, but still nothing works on sub-menus "Add to" and "Manage".

Looks like this is a LXQT/Openbox issue. On brand new installation on LXQT/Openbox problem still exists, but not on COSMIC Desktop.

More like a Steam/CEF issue I'd say. :]

That said, I don't see the problem with LXQt/KWin, but do see it with LXQt/Openbox.

There's also this Steam issue that is likely to be related:
