VS Code web: quickpick disappear when a walkthrough is opened and focused

[vitaliy-guliy]

I noticed that a few months ago some changes related to the focus in quickpick and in inputbox were pushed.
Today I faced a bug that seems appeared after that improvements.
The bug is relevant for the web version. I've checked the case on VS Code desktop 1.86.0 and did not get any issues.

Does this issue occur when all extensions are disabled?: Yes/No

An extension helps me to show the bug, no reason to disable it.

• VS Code Version: 1.86.0, Version: 1.87.0
• OS Version: -

Steps to Reproduce:
The bug is reproducible on gitpod. I've prepared a simple extension to demonstrate

1. Go to Gitpod, create a workspace from https://github.com/vitaliy-guliy/vscode-test-extension
2. if the extension is not compiled automatically, open a terminal, install dependencies with npm install and then compile the extension with npm run compile
3. Run the extension
4. In the secondary browser window open Welcome page and go to Test walkthrough and focus the tile
5. Click Show button, enter some value and try to select any item from appeared quickpick.

In 99 percents the quickpick is appeared and then immediately closed.

A notification will show entered values.

@vitaliy-guliy I am unable to repro this issue.

Have you also considered setting ignoreFocusOut in your InputBoxOptions

		/**
		 * Set to `true` to keep the input box open when focus moves to another part of the editor or to another window.
		 * This setting is ignored on iPad and is always false.
		 */
		ignoreFocusOut?: boolean;

@bhavyaus I also cannot reproduce this bug on gitpod anymore.
But it still reproducible in Eclipse Che nightly build with VS Code 1.88.0
Gitpod is still running with VS Code 1.87.0

I would not like to add ignoreFocusOut property as it makes the UX a bit confusing. The user have to focus the popup manually to continue entering the value.
This how does it look like with ignoreFocusOut: true property

Anyway, I will test it again on the Gitpod when it gets VS Code 1.88.x or later.
Thanks!

@bhavyaus The bug is reproducible on Github Codespaces with VS Code 1.85.2

Btw, I cannot reopen the issue. Was this restriction added intentionally?

@bhavyaus could you please take a look? it looks like the issue is still actual and should be reopened

[bhavyaus]

Investigating..

@vitaliy-guliy I am unable to repro this issue on Github Codespaces with VS Code 1.85.2. Could you please include a recording/gif of the repro.

@bhavyaus have you had a chance to try to reproduce the bug?

[vitaliy-guliy]

I tried to reproduce it today, but seems it works

[bhavyaus]

Ill verify on my end if the VS Code version bump fixed it. There have been a few changes in this area in the last few iterations. - verified.

[vitaliy-guliy]

@bhavyaus I no longer have any issues with VS Code built from sources. Thanks.

[vitaliy-guliy]

I started to face the issue on gitpod again.
It is unstable and reproducible in 90% of cases
