[SOLVED] how to change the position of the steam popup (overlay) [SOLVED]

[Toeli]

it is pretty annoying, because in few games it blocks the minimap (csgo etc.), and in some i cant loot, because it blocks the inventory, so is there a possibility how to change the position

btw. they are on different positions in different games
Thank you for your time!

You could probably create a skin that moves it

About page 88 of this tutorial might help

doesnt works for me somehow, i saved my settings, restarted pc and restarted steam, but i kinda doesnt work :/

Hmmm... I don't understand why that wouldn't work. It works fine on my PC, although I'm running an older version of the Steam Client (December 2013). That version of the Steam Client, and all versions in-between, it seems to work fine on.

A couple of things though: In my instructions text file the "Program Files" folder is mentioned. If you are running a 64-bit OS, that would be "Program Files (x86)".

Lastly, if you're using WinDoZe Notepad to edit the two files, ensure that Notepad is saving them with the ACTUAL filenames of "Gameoverlay.styles" and "Steam.styles"... not "Gameoverlay.styles.txt" and "Steam.styles.txt" (like Notepad sometimes likes to do <argh>).

game overlay styles
Notifications.PanelPosition "BottomRight" // osx has toast in the upper right, but in-overlay should not.

this is how it is in my settings now, but somehow in my cs in still hides the minimap, which is pretty annoying in gunfights

i also have the right location, where i found em, and also saved the files and restarted my pc and steam

Note: when i restart steam, it loads a little update, and i think, this is why it always gets set back, (but im not sure about this)

That could possibly be the problem, but I'm not really sure. For the Steam Client on my PC, I have forced Steam so that it will not do any updates (re: December 2013 version of the client).

That could possibly be why it's not working for you, but like I said, I'm not really sure.

BTW, in one of the previous posts someone mentioned this file -> {LINK ENTFERNT}http://www.mediafire.com/download/ddzpgvudu2mxwmd/Steam+notification+location.zip . I've never really messed around with Steam Client "skins", but according to the readme text file in that ZIP, it uses that method for changing the position ('switching' Steam Client skins)... edited versions of the two files, located in subfolders of your "Skins" folder, and then supposedly you can switch the position of the notification panel 'on-the-fly' simply by selecting the skins within the Steam Client.

[Rich ¥Weeds¥ Nagel]

P.S. If the problem is due to the Steam Client doing a little update when you restart Steam, you could try shutting down Steam; editing and saving the two files; and then setting each of the files to "Read-Only" before restarting Steam.

If the problem is due to Steam updating/refreshing those files upon restarting it, that might help :)
