Proposal

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

Empty space below the "Next" button when we open the page, and the button does not keep its position above the keyboard

What is the root cause of that problem?

We haven't set shouldEnableMaxHeight on the screen wrapper here

App/src/pages/settings/ExitSurvey/ExitSurveyResponsePage.tsx

Line 100 in e60b821

<ScreenWrapper testID={ExitSurveyResponsePage.displayName}>

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

enable max height on the screen wrapper in exit survey response page

            shouldEnableMaxHeight

We can also make same fixes in other exit survey page (or other pages) with the same problem

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

Proposal

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

There are lot of empty spaces below the button in exit survey response page.

What is the root cause of that problem?

When the keyboard is shown, we don't resize the page height. We have a shouldEnableMaxHeight prop to do it, but we aren't using it for the exit survey page.

App/src/components/ScreenWrapper.tsx

Line 155 in 5db0996

const maxHeight = shouldEnableMaxHeight ? windowHeight : undefined;

App/src/pages/settings/ExitSurvey/ExitSurveyResponsePage.tsx

Lines 121 to 122 in 5db0996

	return (
	<ScreenWrapper testID={ExitSurveyResponsePage.displayName}>

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

Enable the max height by passing the shouldEnableMaxHeight prop to the page ScreenWrapper.

App/src/pages/settings/ExitSurvey/ExitSurveyResponsePage.tsx

Lines 121 to 122 in 5db0996

	return (
	<ScreenWrapper testID={ExitSurveyResponsePage.displayName}>

We can apply the same solution to any page that has the same issue.

This issue seems related to the virtual viewport on mWeb, which I resolved several months ago.

@DylanDylann I only made a minor change and a minor note to check for similar problems and fix in PR phase that's why I didn't notify for update

[bernhardoj]

@bernhardoj Is there any difference between your proposal and @FitseTLT's proposal?

None, proposals are posted almost at the same time (1ms difference)

https://api.github.com/repos/Expensify/App/issues/comments/2326480465

Which page has the same issue?

I write this in case there is other cases found when working on the PR, but I just found that it happens in the console page too.

We can apply the same solution to any page that has the same issue.

[DylanDylann]

Thanks, everyone. The solution is straightforward. Although @FitseTLT goes first, the difference is only one second. I still lean toward @bernhardoj's proposal because he provides more detailed information and presents it more clearly than @FitseTLT's original proposal. One more thing, @bernhardoj also point out the same bug on the console page.

Anyway, I will leave the final decision to the internal engineer

@FitseTLT

We can also make same fixes in other exit survey page (or other pages) with the same problem

@DylanDylann I just wrote this to indicate we can fix similar problems in other pages in PR phase, for instance, with a short researching I found similar problem in Report Participants page but we will find more cases in PR phase

2024-09-10.18-15-50.mp4

I have proposed the same solution first @DylanDylann there is no reason to select the second proposal.

@roryabraham please consider reviewing the decision above I have stated the same solution first and equally indicated more cases to be dealt with (as ReportParticipantsPage) but the reviewer is chosing the second proposal. Thx

[kevinksullivan]

Waiting on the internal stamp of approval. I am going OOO so I'm looping in another member of BZ

[DylanDylann]

Point 1:

I have proposed the same solution first @DylanDylann there is no reason to select the second proposal.

@FitseTLT I think we shouldn't encourage posting a sketchy and brief proposal as soon as possible and then updating it later. Keep in mind that @bernhardoj’s proposal came just one second after yours, but it is clearer and more detailed. He also explains why using shouldEnableMaxHeight will address the issue effectively.

Point 2:

@DylanDylann I just wrote this to indicate we can fix similar problems in other pages in PR phase

I expect we can address it in the proposal because I see many cases where contributors missed that in the PR phase

Point 3:

for instance, with a short researching I found similar problem in Report Participants page

I don't see the same problem in Report Participants page as you mentioned

Screen.Recording.2024-09-13.at.11.40.55.mov

Anyways, Let's waiting for @roryabraham to give the final decision

[roryabraham]

thanks everyone, just seeing this but it's late for me. I'll review tomorrow

[FitseTLT]

I don't see the same problem in Report Participants page as you mentioned

@DylanDylann The problem occurs when there is a text input in the page and to achieve that you need to have > 8 participants as indicated in my video.

[roryabraham]

I agree with @DylanDylann's evaluation (though, none of the proposals really explain the root cause, only that it's a known thing and we have a prop to fix it. Both RCAs are just repeating the solution).

[melvin-bot]

@puneetlath @kevinksullivan @roryabraham @bernhardoj @DylanDylann this issue was created 2 weeks ago. Are we close to approving a proposal? If not, what's blocking us from getting this issue assigned? Don't hesitate to create a thread in #expensify-open-source to align faster in real time. Thanks!

[DylanDylann]

@bernhardoj Waiting for PR

[puneetlath]

@bernhardoj do you have an ETA?

[bernhardoj]

Sorry, I was sick. PR is now ready
