Issues/unexpected behaviour when triggering popup within popup

[adabelleleiram]

My Home Assistant version: 2023.1.0

What I am doing: I would like to be able to open a popup from within another popup. In my case, I have a light group that I want to be able to expand. For the hold action of the light group, I trigger a popup that shows a list of all the entities in that group. Holding on each entity brings up another popup. If that entity is a group, it would expand that one too, otherwise show more-info for that light.

What I expected to happen: To be able to open each popup with a hold action. When I close each popup, I expect to return to the previous popup.

What happened instead: On mobile (both companion app and Chrome), I have to do the hold action twice within the first popup to open the second popup: https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/28298971/213862640-7cf5c40c-ff9f-4d5a-b139-38b6d72af636.mp4

This doesn't happen on my computer in Chrome (not even with mobile layout in dev tools).

When I close popup 2, I'm sent back to the main view. This happens on mobile and on my computer.

Minimal steps to reproduce:

• Use the yaml below.
• Hold button card to open popup 1
• Hold button card On computer browser: opens popup 2 On mobile (companion or browser): hold again to open popup 2
• Close popup

I've added a media-control card to a popup and noticed the Browse Media button doesn't work. I think that's essentially the same issue - popup from within a popup.

Have similar issue with scheduler card, where it is normally possible to click on the title/status line to open the schedule as popup. But if the scheduler card opened via a browser-mod popup it is no longer possible to open the schedule popup.

Same issue here @Kilill .... @thomasloven any idea ?

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not had recent activity. It will be closed if no further activity occurs. Thank you for your contributions.

I assume this hasn't been fixed..? Commenting so this doesn't get closed

[thomasloven]

Please try now.

[adabelleleiram]

Please try now.

Great to hear that you've fixed it! I unfortunately can't test it at the moment due to this issue: https://github.com/thomasloven/lovelace-more-info-card/issues/23

If you have a chance to look at that one too at some point, I can verify them both :)

Thomas, I am having the same issue here. 'parent' popup is closed when firing popup from it.

Hi @thomasloven ,

Sorry it took me so long but I've finally given it a try. I'm unfortunately still having the same issue (I open two "nested" popups, clicking back does nothing, clicking backing again takes me to the start). It's like it doesn't close the second popup (maybe it closes the first one underneath the second popup so I don't see anything happen...?).
