Login Screen | ALT GR Key is not supported anymore.

[Sir Bowen 🐉]

As an early bird to Steam it was quite common to use an email address for login and some strong passwords with special characters back in the days.

For example:
The new Login Screen doesnt allow to type the @ sign on german keyboards.
(ALT GR + Q)
So i have to copy and paste my e-mail adress everytime to log in to steam.

Also:
The autofill function of the last user name does not work either.

Edit:
Everytime i have to uncheck the "Save login data", which makes no sense at all (see below)

Same here with same symbol (Alt Gr + 2) on swedish/finnish keyboard.

Next Client Update today ...
still no @ symbol (ALT GR + Q) possible to type at the login page.

In additional.
everytime i have to uncheck the "Save login data"
Why is the checkbox marked as default, this makes no sense at all.
If i want to save my login data, i check this box once and done.
But for the people who dont want that, they have to uncheck everytime? Really?

Please fix both.

Still the client programmers don't seem to be able to add the ALT GR key for the login area. But the special characters like @ are still allowed, but cannot be entered like this.

Well, the US-Keyboard don't have this key, unlike the rest of the world.
And until they have studied this rocket science to implement this ALT GR (alternate graphics) key, everyone else can help themselves with the ASCII-Code 64 for the @ symbol.

(Make yourself a mental bridge with Commodore 64 or write it down or stick something on your monitor.)

To do this,
hold down the ALT key and type 6 and 4 on the numeric keypad and let go of the alt key. Voila an @ appears.

Better than copy and paste from notepad or similar to login to steam.

If you need other special characters, here are some ASCII Codes.
