Try to refactor the logic regarding refocusing when the modal is closed #29199

ntdiary · 2023-10-10T15:15:56Z

So far, the Modal components under our control can be categorized into three types: BaseModal, PopoverWithoutOverlay, and RHP (Right Hand Panel).

This PR will simulate the iOS native Modal refocusing behavior: If there is a focused input field before opening the Modal, our app will attempt to restore that focus after the Modal is dismissed. If there is no focus before opening, no restore after the Modal is dismissed.

Additionally, this PR will introduce a restoreFocusType prop, here are possible values:

default, this will follow the default behavior mentioned above.
preserve, this will leave the focus in the manager and no longer restore focus, applicable for consecutive modal scenarios.
delete, this will delete the focus and no longer restore focus, the caller can decide in its own business logic whether to focus a specific element.

The specific business Modals that have been tested:

context menu (long press / right click a message to open this modal)
three dots menu (click the three dot button in the top right corner of the app to open this modal)
confirm modal (some delete actions will show this modal)
attachment preview modal (click an image message to open this modal)
emoji picker modal (click the emoji button in a composer)
the main composer attachment modal (click the plus button in the main composer to open this modal)
RHP (click the username in a message to open the profile page, or use shortcuts to open some RHP pages)

Once the POC is approved by most people, we'll refine the code, clean things up, and then repush it.

Hey! I see that you made changes to our Form component. Make sure to update the docs in FORMS.md accordingly. Cheers!

ntdiary · 2023-11-29T14:04:58Z

Hi @0xmiroslav, when you get a chance, could you take a quick look at the implementation of this PR? It has successfully passed tests in many scenarios. I'm eager to get your initial impressions on this PR, such as whether this implementation approach is acceptable and if there are any serious blockers I might have overlooked. :)
Additionally, considering the importance of controlling the size of the PR, I am also planning to address some non-urgent cleanup tasks in follow-up PRs, such as removing unnecessary focus logic, optimizing the Modal implementation , and other improvements.

src/CONST.ts

src/libs/ComposerFocusManager.js

What is the purpose of this?

App/src/components/PopoverWithoutOverlay/index.js

Lines 84 to 88 in e1fcb42

} else {

props.onModalHide();

close(props.anchorRef);

Modal.onModalDidClose();

}

It's somewhat similar to the above condition code, but has the following advantages:

it's only called when the modal disappears (the code above is called even on the initial load),

it's beneficial for extracting common logic in the future.

 };

 const deleteStopAndHideModal = () => {
+ setRestoreFocusType(CONST.MODAL.RESTORE_TYPE.DELETE);


Why the focus type have to change dynamically?

For this case, when we remove a waypoint, the navigation will return to the distance page, the input is unmounted after refocusing is called, which can cause keyboard flickering. So setting the type to DELETE can avoid this issue. When clicking Cancel, we can set it back to DEFAULT to allow refocusing to continue working.

Hey both, just checking the progress here. It looks like there have been a decent amount of updates since the last review, but I see lint errors. @ntdiary is this ready for a second C+ review?

Hey both, just checking the progress here. It looks like there have been a decent amount of updates since the last review, but I see lint errors. @ntdiary is this ready for a second C+ review?

@Julesssss, so far, the current implementation has fixed many cases. My updates are more aimed at resolving conflicts.
I've also made adjustments based on the feedback from the previous review, so I think it's ready for a deeper review. :)

ntdiary · 2024-01-29T16:05:54Z

Just updated the test cases, so far, the count is 23. :)

Julesssss

Hey @ntdiary, I didn't realise this would require so many test cases. Lets talk in the issue about increasing the bounty 👍

parasharrajat · 2024-01-31T08:34:07Z

Yeah, I think the bounty should be increased for sure.

Meanwhile, we should create a project and put other focus-related issues on hold so that we don't create new challenges for this PR.

May be inform this on the C+ channel so that C+ can prevent that from happening.

Hey @ntdiary, just checking in here for the next steps as the linked PRs were merged.

@Julesssss, sorry for the delayed update. While I have reassigned all other new issues in the past few weeks, there are still two long-standing and relatively challenging issues that require my attention (#26239, #37596). Now that progress has been made on the other two issues, so expect to be able to raise a second small PR for this issue this week. 😂

ntdiary · 2024-04-30T16:08:39Z

It seems our app recently switched to the Fabric rendering system, which changed the execution order of some native & js code when displaying the modal. I'll investigate further this week to adapt to this new behavior. :)

Julesssss · 2024-04-30T16:42:28Z

Ah another new problem introduced by the new architecture 😅

Hey @ntdiary. Can we close this outdated PR?

@Julesssss, sure! BTW, I noticed that some issues have been put on hold because of this PR, so I plan to look into them this week to see if I can offer any suggestions, just like issue #31224. :)
