What?

#42076 seems to have caused a regression. This PR removes the extra check for anchorRefFallback.current. I think the early return in the old implementation was because the computation was happening inside a useLayoutEffect with different dependencies and order.

I think getAnchorRect should be called even without a fallback ref as many implementations don't take this into account and return something different.. The below is @ciampo 's comment from the original PR:

I believe that the reason why this regression hasn't been encountered until now is because it looks like that the few usages of the getAnchorRect don't actually rely on its arguments (a quick search across the codebase should confirm this hypothesis).

Great catch, thanks for the follow-up @ntsekouras, I could reproduce the issues in the site editor (but not the post editor) and this PR fixes the issue 👍

I can see the logic we went with in the previous PR of attempting to only call the callback if it has a real value, but in this case, fixing the bug seems higher priority than preserving that behaviour! Would it be worth updating the readme to flag that the function will potentially be called with an undefined value?

Thanks for the fix @ntsekouras 👍

The reasoning behind calling the function with a potentially undefined value makes sense to fix the issue. It does seem like something we should document though.

✅ Could replicate the issue in Site Editor on trunk
✅ Issue wasn't present in Post Editor on trunk
✅ Applying the changes in this PR resolves the issue
✅ Confirmed Block Popovers and the list view drop indicator are positioned the same between trunk and this branch

I'm possibly seeing a bit of a performance drop in drag and drop after checking out this PR. I tested in the demo post (http://localhost:8888/wp-admin/post-new.php?gutenberg-demo), dragging a paragraph. Dragging to particular areas in the post seems to cause a lot of lag and glitchiness, like some code is triggering repetitively. It doesn't seem perfect in trunk but a bit better.

I tested using Brave browser on Mac OS. Anyone else seeing the same?

I'm possibly seeing a bit of a performance drop in drag and drop after checking out this PR ... I tested using Brave browser on Mac OS. Anyone else seeing the same?

I gave it a look too but honestly I can't really tell with the naked eye.


More in general I'm good with this PR being merged, but I'm also going to play devil's advocate:

given how getAnchorRect was supposed to be used (also explained in the docs), should we have focused our efforts on fixing the problem from the Site Editor's side?

I think the early return in the old implementation was because the computation was happening inside a useLayoutEffect with different dependencies and order

This is good to know, but unfortunately it wasn't documented anywhere. Relying on tightly-couple logic and ad-hoc exceptions across packages will not serve us well in the long term, and we're already paying the price with the numerous regressions that the Popover refactor surfaced.

I agree with that and I'm too investing time to fully understand how to make everything work as it should be without 'hacks' or stop gap solutions - still not there yet 😄 . Having said that, the specific PR just removes the extra check that some getAnchorRect don't even use, fixes the inbetween inserter issues and I also didn't notice something performance wise(without metrics though).

I'm going to merge this and keep on studying the issues we have and all the current implementation to help make the correct adjustments where needed.
