Hello,
  

The relevant bugzilla is here:

I'm just curious if this patch has been forgotten, or if this issue is
just too difficult to fix at this time.

The problem Steam shows is common to all boarderless Apps which don't specify 
the WS_EX_APPWINDOW flag. Fixing it is quite tricky, 

Ok, so maybe I should stop asking about it then :)
Just making sure it isn't forgotten...

The other problem I mentioned, by the way, (invisible fonts) has been 
fixed, and Steam now appears to work (you still have to re-try 10 or so 
times to get past the memory assertion bug...). I'm downloading HL2 
quickly, before it breaks again!

regression. Any suggestions as to what might have caused this (or 
maybe it was a Steam upgrade?).

To provide some more information:

- there are no error messages - I can provide any necessary traces if 
you can hint at where the problem might be.
- I can see text during the initial connect screen up to the point 
where  the new skinned Steam screen appears. I see no text on the 
new-look dialog boxes.
- I will try installing tahoma.ttf from a friend's machine, but my point 
above was that I've had Steam working without any extra 
dlls/fonts/non-wine components, other than the Transgaming version of 
the ActiveX control, and the text has only been missing recently.


Any help is appreciated..

Also - Steam has a keyboard focus bug, with a documented patch here 
(from Stefan Dosinger):

Previously he reported that the patch might break other apps, but if 
it fixes Steam, then it must be on the right track - surely it can be 
changed so it's acceptable for Wine CVS. I don't understand why a 
known bug with a known patch remains unfixed.

The problem Steam shows is common to all boarderless Apps which don't specify 
the WS_EX_APPWINDOW flag. Fixing it is quite tricky, as we need a good rule 
which windows should be managed. With my patch applied a few other bugs 
occur:
*Moving the Steam Window to the screen boader causes a bad conflict between 
Steam and KDE
*The Quicktime Window can't be moved any more.
*The tool boxes in MS Visual Studio 6 become managed and have a close button. 
If you accidentaly close one, the whole VS shuts down.

These might be real regressions, or allready existing bugs, which are only 
shown by my patch. I am not sure, and the whole thing is really tricky.
