Summary

Hello:

I am running into an issue with Steam. Whenever I right click it or when a 'Friend is playing: Game' notification pops up from the the corner of the screen, it seems to register it as a new window and temporarily messes up my entire layout. I am not sure what to do here to make it act normally (as in without Komorebi running and just shows the popup without it thinking it's another window and tile).

If there is a way to force Steam all together into a floating window, please let me know the config, i can't seem to get it to work for Steam

And windows Installing Windows tend to look expanded while it's content not so.

Your config file doesn't conform to the config schema and is most likely AI slop. The default configs set up by the komorebic quickstart command handle both of the quoted use cases gracefully.

Thank you! I tried to fix it using AI didnt work. Then left it there. I reverted it and added some configs from the documentation and it's now working.

Just when I right click Steam from the Komorebi bar widget sometimes the outline appears at the bottom where the original tray icon supposed to be. It changes to the correct position up top a few seconds later.
