Focus Trap

The focus trap allows to restrict TAB key navigation inside the component.

It is typically used when the user actions should be temporarily limited, for example within dropdown selectors and modal dialogs.

Note

The Dialog component already contains a focus trap, it is not necessary to add one yourself.

Usage

By default, when the component is created or enabled, focus is set on the first tabbable child element. This behavior can be modified by using the DefaultFocus property. If still enabled, the focus is restored to the original element when the component is disposed.

Take note that the focus trap is only for TAB key management; it does not prevent setting the focus elsewhere with the mouse, so you may use an Overlay to prevent this.
