Conditionally return focus
See original GitHub issueI’m looking to conditionally return focus to the previously focused element. For example, I want to check if the intended element is actually focusable (i.e. it may have disappeared by this point). Have checked out checkCanReturnFocus but can’t seem to get this to work (docs are a bit vague for this option).
Can anyone help out here?

@far-fetched unfortunately
return falseinside ofsetReturnFocusleads to the error: “setReturnFocusdid not return a node” and thepreviousActiveElementisundefinedwhen trying to use this withfocus-trap-react.Any ideas? I also posted on focus-trap-react.
Ah I think you’re right @far-fetched! Thanks for the reply. There’s so much in the line on
setReturnFocusthat I didn’t realize that one of the types it can accept is a function.
