Text input not apearing on a flyout modal

[AhmedRyad22]

Problem Description

Text input behaves in a stange way. when you put a flyout modal that contains a Text input, initialy you get it working, after that when you continue working and get back to it you dont find it there, or somtimes just when you close the modal and open it again you dont find it there, it just doesnt show up,

<Flyout
        isOpen={CredentialsModal}
        onDismiss={() => {
          setCredentialsModal(false);
        }}>
        <View
          className={clsx(
            'w-[400px] p-6 space-y-4 rounded',
            colorScheme === 'dark' ? 'bg-neutral-900' : 'bg-neutral-200',
          )}>
          <View>
            <TextInput onChangeText={setAccessKey} placeholder="Access key" />
          </View>
          <View>
            <TextInput onChangeText={setSecreetKey} placeholder="Secret key" />
          </View>
          <View className="mt-4 flex-row space-x-1">
            <View className="flex-1">
              <Button
                onPress={async () => {
                  Managedrives.testConnection(accessKey, secreetKey);
                }}
                title="Testez les accès"
              />
            </View>

            <View className="flex-1">
              <Button
                onPress={() => {
                  // setMountModal(false);
                }}
                title="Enregistrez les accès"
              />
            </View>
          </View>
        </View>

We'd like to reconstruct your repro so we can investigate. Is it possible to share more of your component here (hooks and such, full JS file, or best yet a full standalone repo) so we can best replicate it?

[AhmedRyad22]

Certaintly here is a public repo containing the project

https://github.com/AhmedRyad22/react-native-windows-flyout-bug

https://github.com/microsoft/react-native-windows/assets/54637658/42a21029-9ad2-49bb-abdf-b8a99426efa8

and here is a video to showcase the issue.

thank you in advance

When you add the Text element, that would be pushing the 2 TextInput elements down, right? If you remove it again... they come back maybe?

I have a hypothesis here, which is that the Flyout doesn't handle dynamic content sizing (it stays at whatever size it gets from first layout) and so when your content shows/hides, it stays with the old size, which is going to clip the content. Given the layout rules, the buttons maybe prioritized over the main dialog content area... which means the bottom buttons stay but the content gets clipped. Does that match the behavior you're seeing? If so, that's a limitation of Flyout on the current Paper renderer that we expect to address with the upcoming Fabric renderer. Which doesn't help you today, but helps with our future tracking.

Some background: https://github.com/microsoft/react-native-windows/issues/7601

Is the resizing of the content here something you have to support in your final production app, or just during development?

[AhmedRyad22]

hello, thank you for your response,

the issue is not really related to dynamic content, here you can see that when you build the app or when you launch it again, the text input will not be displayed in the flyout.

( i simulated the build or new luanch by reloading JS server )

Thank you for the added detail! Next step will be trying to replicate this using your snippet in a more reduced app.
