Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

PDF preview - Eye icon to show password on password protected PDF file is not working

What is the root cause of that problem?

This issue is introduced by #24482 where pointerEvents="box-none" attribute in View compenent here is replaced with below style object

App/src/styles/pointerEventsBoxNone/index.ts

Lines 3 to 5 in 8c3e3bc

	const pointerEventsNone: PointerEventsBoxNone = {
	pointerEvents: 'box-none',
	};

But they are not exactly the same thing and we don't have box-none value for pointerEvents style attribute as documented here https://reactnative.dev/docs/view#pointerevents pointerEvents="box-none" is more like this:

.box-none {
     pointer-events: none;
}
.box-none * {
     pointer-events: auto;
}

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

We should revert this change and just apply pointerEvents="box-none" for all the instances

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

[mananjadhav]

@alitoshmatov's proposal is correct. Not sure if this would be treated as a Deploy Blocker.

@danieldoglas let me know we're okay to proceed with the proposal or solve as a regression.

[alitoshmatov]

From https://github.com/necolas/react-native-web/releases/tag/0.19.0

[add] Add support for pointerEvents style.

...

[change] Deprecate pointerEvents prop. Use pointerEvents style.

But as we can see https://reactnative.dev/docs/view-style-props#pointerevents is not deprecated in react native itself, also pointerEvents style already exists, thus conflicting with each other. I think deprecating pointerEvents of View component in react-native-web was not a good idea. They should keep supporting any attribute that exists in react native.

[aimane-chnaif]

@getusha can you please check this?

[getusha]

There is a box-none value e.g. https://github.com/necolas/react-native-web/blob/a3ea2a0a4fd346a1b32e6cef527878c8e433eef8/packages/react-native-web/src/exports/AppRegistry/AppContainer.js#L53

https://github.com/necolas/react-native-web/blob/a3ea2a0a4fd346a1b32e6cef527878c8e433eef8/packages/react-native-web/src/modules/createDOMProps/index.js#L29-L42

I doubt they will add it if it doesn't exist.

[tienifr]

I'm available to raise a fix PR immediately if assigned, this is a pretty serious issue.

Proposal

Please re-state the problem that we are trying to solve in this issue.

The eye icon is not responsive, does nothing.

This starts appearing after this PR is merged

What is the root cause of that problem?

There's a box-none value in RN web but currently it's implemented incorrectly. Currently the child elements of it 's implemented like parent > *: { pointer-events: auto } (see here) which only affects direct children. So the grand-children will still inherit the pointer-events: none, which makes the eye not responsive.

What changes do you think we should make in order to solve the problem?

Fix upstream in RN web, update to the pattern parent *: { pointer-events: auto } so it affects all children. That means updating the >* to * in this line

This is recommended in the RN doc as well https://reactnative.dev/docs/view#pointerevents.

In the meantime when the fix is not yet merged to upstream, we can create a fork/a patch-package change to apply it in our App code.

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

The box-only likely has the same issue here, we can fix for it as well.

[tienifr]

@mananjadhav please consider my proposal above as well, thanks!

[getusha]

I think we can fix this by simply adding styles.pointerEventsAuto to the Checkbox component in BaseTextInput

[tienifr]

I think we can fix this by simply adding styles.pointerEventsAuto to the Checkbox component in BaseTextInput

it will work but it's a workaround

@JmillsExpensify

[peterdbarkerUK]

@mananjadhav could you review the regression checklist? This feels like something we should add to TestRail

[mananjadhav]

I think we have the PR here as the offending PR.

Though I think this would've been difficult to detect considering it was an external package upgrade. I agree we should add a regression test for this one. The Test steps from the PR look good to me. wdyt @danieldoglas @peterdbarkerUK ?

[JmillsExpensify]

$500 payment approved for @mananjadhav based on this comment.

[danieldoglas]

Agreed we should make this a regression test @peterdbarkerUK

[peterdbarkerUK]

Agreed! Dashing out, will take care of it tomorrow
