DevExtreme jQuery/JS - 3rd-Party Frameworks Issues
This section describes issues related to 3rd-party frameworks and steps you can follow to diagnose and resolve these issues. If the solutions listed here do not help, create a ticket in our Support Center.
Modals
If you place DevExtreme components in a Bootstrap modal, the following issues may occur:
- Users cannot insert, update, or delete a DataGrid row.
- Users cannot enter values in the FilterBuilder.
- Editors in the DropDownBox lose focus.
- TextArea loses focus.
- DataGrid ColumnChooser loses focus.
On page load, Bootstrap locates all modals and places their child elements into special collections. A modal only allows items from its child element collection to receive focus. At the same time, DevExtreme components can generate elements on the fly. Such dynamically-generated elements do not get attached to the focusable collection.
To allow any element to obtain input focus, specify a specially-designed option as shown in the code below.
Set the data-bs-focus
property to false
(Bootstrap 5). For Bootstrap 4 or earlier, disable the data-focus
property.
- <div class="modal fade" role="dialog" data-bs-focus="false">
- <div class="modal-dialog">
- <div class="modal-content">
- <!-- DevExtreme components -->
- </div>
- </div>
- </div>
- <div class="modal fade" role="dialog" data-focus="false">
- <div class="modal-dialog">
- <div class="modal-content">
- <!-- DevExtreme components -->
