Opening a Menu from a TextInput anchor on the web unfocuses the anchor

[pta2002]

Current behaviour

When a Menu has a TextInput as an anchor, if that input's onFocus is used to open the menu, it becomes unfocused.

Expected behaviour

This is not consistent with Android, where it keeps focus. It would be nice if it worked this way on the web too, so that a searchable dropdown can be implemented.

Code sample

What have you tried

I have tried using a separate component (not the anchor) to trigger the menu, but it got unfocused as well. Either way, I think the behaviour should at least be consistent.

Couldn't find version numbers for the following packages in the issue:

• react-native-vector-icons
• yarn
• expo

Can you update the issue to include version numbers for those packages? The version numbers must match the format 1.2.3.

The versions mentioned in the issue for the following packages differ from the latest versions on npm:

• react-native (found: 0.63.2, latest: 0.65.1)
• npm (found: 6.14.15, latest: 7.23.0)

Can you verify that the issue still exists after upgrading to the latest versions of these packages?

This is still an issue, and I did provide a repro: https://snack.expo.dev/@pta2002/eb79e2 don't know why it says it doesn't have one

I have a similar issue, text inputs fail to focus like the snack demo shows - I need to use the tab key to properly focus the input.

Our issue is unrelated, i tracked it down to the input being wrapped in a <TouchableWithoutFeedback onPress={Keyboard.dismiss}> which works fine on mobile but doesn't work the same on web - not a Paper issue. Sorry!
