Bug - Popover/Modal - Modals and popover do not render properly when Fullscreen API is used

Open logonoff opened this issue 6 months ago • 3 comments

Describe the problem A clear and concise description of the problem. Which components are affected?

When the fullscreen API is used, the browser does not render the entire document tree. Popovers and modals, which append to document.body by default might not be included in the scope of the fullscreen element.

How do you reproduce the problem? Provide steps to reproduce. A codesandbox demonstrating the problem is appreciated.

adapted from https://www.patternfly.org/components/modal#basic-modals:

import * as React from 'react';
import { Button, Modal, ModalBody, ModalFooter, ModalHeader } from '@patternfly/react-core';

export const useFullscreen = () => {
  /** The element that will be toggled to fullscreen */
  const fullscreenRef = React.useRef(null);

  /** Toggle currently displayed content to/from fullscreen */
  const toggleFullscreen = React.useCallback(() => {
    if (fullscreenRef.current) {
      if (!document.fullscreenElement) {
        fullscreenRef.current.requestFullscreen();
      } else {
        document.exitFullscreen();
      }
    }
  }, []);

  return [fullscreenRef, toggleFullscreen];
};

export const ModalBasic: React.FunctionComponent = () => {
  const [isModalOpen, setIsModalOpen] = React.useState(false);
  const [fullscreenRef, toggleFullscreen] = useFullscreen();

  const handleModalToggle = (_event: KeyboardEvent | React.MouseEvent) => {
    setIsModalOpen(!isModalOpen);
  };

  return (
    <div ref={fullscreenRef}>
    <Button onClick={toggleFullscreen}>toggle fullscreen</Button>
      <Button variant="primary" onClick={handleModalToggle} ouiaId="ShowBasicModal">
        Show basic modal
      </Button>
      <Modal
        isOpen={isModalOpen}
        onClose={handleModalToggle}
        ouiaId="BasicModal"
        aria-labelledby="basic-modal-title"
        aria-describedby="modal-box-body-basic"
      >
        <ModalHeader title="Basic modal" labelId="basic-modal-title" />
        <ModalBody id="modal-box-body-basic">

        </ModalBody>
        <ModalFooter>
          <Button key="confirm" variant="primary" onClick={handleModalToggle}>
            Confirm
          </Button>
          <Button key="cancel" variant="link" onClick={handleModalToggle}>
            Cancel
          </Button>
        </ModalFooter>
      </Modal>
      </div>
  );
};

Expected behavior A clear and concise description of the expected behavior.

The modal appends to the fullscreenElement when the browser is fullscreen

Is this issue blocking you? List the workaround if there is one.

Sort of..? This is causing issues in #15254 and my workaround is to simply disable any elements that generate popovers when the browser is fullscreened

Screenshots If applicable, add screenshots to help explain the issue.

What is your environment?

Firefox 140.0-1.fc42

What is your product and what release date are you targeting?

OCP console 4.20

Any other information?

We can update the default value of appendTo to be () => document.fullscreenElement ?? document.body which will probably fix this. We will need to update the value of appendTo dynamically when the user exit and enters fullscreen however
