@supermario999 what would be the use-case & expectations? Should the backdrop also take the size of the fitInto
element?
When you set with-backdrop
on an overlay, it will also block focus within the overlay (e.g. when you hit TAB the focus will wrap into the overlay).
If you want to only have a backdrop below the overlay, you could do that with css, e.g.
paper-dialog {
outline: 9999px solid rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6);
}
I know this is an old issue but I would like to see this option too.
In my use case, we are creating a 'widget' (small app) which is a collection of components which can be included on a clients page. In our case, we would only want the overlay to be appended to our top-most component and have a width and height of 100% of this top-most component rather than be appended to the body.
I would like this option for source order purposes as well.
This is my use-case:
<custom-element-a>
is a slot element of <custom-element-b>
<custom-element-a>
slots <button>
that opens <paper-dialog>
on click<paper-dialog>
is opened, <iron-overlay-backdrop>
is appended to the end of <body>
z-index
is much higher than <custom-element-b>
, <iron-overlay-backdrop>
appears over <paper-dialog>
<custom-element-b>
<custom-element-a>
<button>Open dialog</button>
<paper-dialog></paper-dialog>
</custom-element-a>
</custom-element-b>
<iron-overlay-backdrop></iron-overlay-backdrop>
Increasing the z-index
of <custom-element-b>
to be higher will just cause it to cover <iron-overlay-backdrop>
.
This is my desired outcome with this issue:
<custom-element-b>
<custom-element-a>
<button>Open dialog</button>
<paper-dialog></paper-dialog>
<iron-overlay-backdrop></iron-overlay-backdrop>
</custom-element-a>
</custom-element-b>
Description
iron-overlay-backdrop should append to the fitInto element if specified.
Expected outcome
If fitInto is set on an element (for example paper-dialog) then the iron-overlay-backdrop should append to the same fitInto element
Actual outcome
iron-overlay-backdrop is always appended to the body.
