Title Props

To be sure that the popover exposes the correct title to assistive technologies, you should use the titleProps prop on the PopoverContent component. To use this prop, you must pass a function as a child.

With Form

The Popover handles the focus within the popover content. It means that you can use the popover with form elements without any problem. the focus returns to the trigger when the popover closes.

Note: You can add the autoFocus prop to the first Input component to focus it when the popover opens.

Backdrop

The Popover component has a backdrop prop to show a backdrop behind the popover. The backdrop can be either transparent, opaque or blur. The default value is transparent.

Custom Motion

Popover offers a motionProps property to customize the enter / exit animation.

Data Attributes

Accessibility

• The trigger and popover are automatically associated semantically via ARIA.
• Content outside the popover is hidden from assistive technologies while it is open.
• The popover closes when interacting outside, or pressing the Escape key.
• Focus is moved into the popover on mount, and restored to the trigger element on unmount.
• The popover is positioned relative to the trigger element, and automatically flips and adjusts to avoid overlapping with the edge of the browser window.
• Scrolling is prevented outside the popover to avoid unintentionally repositioning or closing it.
