Backpack Modals does not close about backpack HOT 6 CLOSED

Hi @NimaSoroush - thanks for reporting this!
This may be due to the app thinking you are dragging rather than clicking, which sometimes happens with high-precision input devices such as Wacom Bamboos. Would you mind telling us what pointing device you are using?
If this is what's happening then maybe we should update our check to discount a "drag" action if it is over a very short distance. Will have a think 😸

Hi @georgegillams
I can actually reproduce it on my Mac machine with chrome and firefox. I am definitely not dragging. I just quickly click outside of modal box. If I do it slowly the modal will close. My though is that some kind of asynchronous initialization happening which causes this.

Hmm.. I don't seem to be able to reproduce this in either browser on macOS. I've tried using Auto Mouse Click to perform the click in 1ms, and it works fine.

Do you mind providing more details about your system?

Also just to let you know our documentation has moved to https://backpack.github.io/components/web/modals/ and the link you provided redirects, but I can't see that making any difference
