This is dependent on #38, as #38 introduced a new focus state that doesn't go away on its own. I figured this could be worth a separate discussion.
These two functions are useful when there are scripted behaviors that alter menu items. This allows those behaviors to interact with
<details-menu>
easily, instead of getting into the implementation details of<details-menu>
.For example,
A filtering behavior would want to clear focus after filtering. With this change, it will be able to call
detailsMenu.clearFocus()
instead ofA filtering input would want to trigger an implicit selection for the first filtered result on Enter. With this change, it will be able to invoke
detailsMenu.selectFocusOrFirst()
instead ofExample:
Note: In this use case the current focus check in
selectFocusOrFirst
is redundant, since the input would have focus. "Focus or first" is mostly an explicit name for an implicit default.
