Screenshot shortcut not working

[Zxellon]

There is no new file created, I also tried a ps4 controller on 3 other games, and still nothing.

when you properly do screenshot combination there are sound and pop up notification in the right down corner

my advice try firstly press PS button then one moment later without releasing it press L1, then simultaneously release them

You should check screenshot has been set as action in game config. I found no button had been set to take screenshot and just adding that action (to share button for 8BitDo Pro 2 controller) gave a working screenshot in game using Steam for windows (no Deck involved) without relying on the global guide chord shortcut like Michiru describes and suggests as workaround.

Having steam fps counter enabled seems to block the onscreen notifications but screenshot manager opens after closing game so know have a working screenshot button after adding Take Screenshot action in game config.

it works in big picture in desktop mode. the other chord shortcuts work just fine. as i said before, no file is being created in deck mode.

Turns out its a main channel preview issue. Going to stable fixes the problem, but going back to main the problem persists.

They're adding clips in the beta version and the clips keybinds are the same as current screenshot keybinds
I re assigned my controller screenshot to left d pad instead of right dpad (now being used by default to start a recording)
And it's let me take screenshots again

I'm assuming assigning clips to the screenshot bind disabled the action even if your version of stream didn't have clips as a feature yet

How do I do that? Do I have to manually add a screenshot bind to every game?
