Steam default window size not editable

What's wrong?

I am unable to change the default size of Steam's main window, or Steam's friends list for that matter.

I have created a windows.conf file at ~/.config/hypr/ with the following contents:

# Special windowrules for specific applications

# Floating Steam
windowrule = float, class:steam
windowrule = center, class:steam, title:Steam
windowrule = opacity 1 1, class:steam
windowrule = size 1100 700, class:steam, title:Steam
windowrule = size 460 800, class:steam, title:Friends List
windowrule = idleinhibit fullscreen, class:steam

I obviously just based this on the existing Steam window configuration at ~/.local/share/omarchy/default/hypr/apps/steam.conf. This custom windows config file is also sourced in my ~/.config/hypr/hyprland.conf file.

Whenever I try changing the size values in my windows.conf file for either Steam's main window or the friends list, nothing happens. Even when I change it while Steam is not running at all, then open it after the size values are changed, still nothing happens. However, I can change the opacity values and when the file is saved, Steam's opacity immediately changes without having to close and open, or restart Steam. Additionally, if I add a workspaces rule to always have Steam open on a certain workspace, when I save windows.conf, Steam immediately moves to the set workspace.

It appears that the only windowrules that I can't change in my windows.conf file for Steam is the size values. I have tried pixel values like 1800 900, and I have tried percentages like 80% 80%, but neither of these work at all.

To be clear, I am not having the same issue as issue #755. That was about the scaling of Steam, not the size of the floating window itself. My issue is that I cannot change the size the floating window Steam uses. I would like to make it much larger, but it seems locked at the default sizes.

I am honestly clueless about what is going on here. Is anyone else having the same issue? Let me know if there is any other information you need.
