Dialog Layers - Tab losing focus

Jun 14, 2022

I'm currently working on upgrading courses to include more accessibility features. When testing the new dialog layer feature I ran what seems to be a bug.

When I use tab navigation to access a dialog layer, then close that layer and reopen it. Tabbing will cause focus to be lost and then tab no longer works.

I'll come back to update you when I have any news to share!
