Focus on tree element after reload about react-accessible-treeview HOT 11 CLOSED

opreisSys Can you try with the new focus props? V2.9.0

Oh super! This property solved my problem. Thank you.

We’d be open to a PR if you want to submit it but I can’t promise it will be merged since there are normal react, jquery, and browser API ways to do this.

Yes there are normal ways to set the focus, but not in such a way that the tree accepts it properly. If I set the focus on a tree element and want to navigate from there with the keyboard, the focus starts again at the top of the tree.

Okay. We’ll review your PR if you’d like to submit one.

I currently have no capacity to fix it. But I still need a solution here, because it is an accessibility problem.

Can you provide documentation that this is an accessibility problem? It appears to be a usability problem.

I’ll reopen the issues so that someone might contribute it. But currently it’s out of scope for my team too.

help wanted.

@dgreene1 Thank you for reopening the issue!
From my point of view, it is both an usability and accessibility problem.

1. a blind user navigates in the tree using the keyboard and opens a dialog from there.
2. user is in the dialog and rerenders the tree when closing the dialogue.
3. user loses focus in the tree and has to find the location again.

As I mentioned above, unfortunately it does not help to set the focus with browser API methods, as the tree does not accept it and navigates from there back to the top of the tree.

As soon as I have found the relevant place in the accessibility guidelines, I will get back to you.
