SteamVR menus appear behind Desktop+ #41

When you open list of add-ons in Steam VR, it displays behind Desktop+, making it impossible to select those add-ons at the top

Capture

I have to switch to regular Desktop mode, then open the add-on menu again to be able to select them.

I can't reproduce this issue, at least not with default settings. It's possible to get into this situation if the overlay offset set further forward, though.

Now the reason this can happen in the first place is that Desktop+ doesn't use the dashboard overlay it's set to for displaying the dashboard overlay. This done to allow for more freedom in overlay positioning. Well, and it's also thanks to how SteamVR handles overlay sorting. It's not very granular and overlays are sorted by their center point to the HMD. There's also some explicit sorting value, but it's not used here and I can't force my overlay to be lower than default (and there's no way to detect if that menu is displaying).

So I'm afraid there's not much I can do when it happens, but at the same time I do not have this issue on my end by default.

doh, of course it was positioning. Thanks!
