I noticed in this PR that the tooltip is only closed if esc is pressed while the tooltip has focus. The result is if the tooltip is open, and (without moving the mouse) you click on the chart, and then tap escape, the tooltip doesn't close. However, we're also running into another unintended consequence of having focus captured on hover. In our app, we have popovers that close on blur, so if you accidentally move your mouse too far outside of a popover and it lands on a chart, the tooltip will open and focus, which will then close the popover. I think we can still keep the same accessibility behavior here by just binding an event listener to document.body when the tooltip is opened, and not capturing focus in the tooltip element itself. Would that work/would you accept a PR for this? |
## Description When the tooltip is displayed it becomes focused so it can be dismissed by pressing the _escape_ key. However, by focusing the tooltip, several issues occur on the apps using this lib. In this pr, based on this [comment](#2914 (comment)), I replaced the dismissing handling from the `onKeyDrown` prop for a event listener ## Related Issue [Issues/#3063](#3063) ## Motivation and Context This issue was afecting our product since when mousing over a chart, we can no longer edit a pre focused input. Other users have complained about similar issues like closing of modals (which close on blur event) ## How Has This Been Tested? I tested the behaviour manualy using the storybook. I didn't add any test since I didn't add a new feature. ## Screenshots (if appropriate): ## Types of changes - [X] Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue) - [ ] New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality) - [ ] Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to change) ## Checklist: - [X] My code follows the code style of this project. - [ ] My change requires a change to the documentation. - [ ] I have updated the documentation accordingly. - [ ] I have added tests to cover my changes. - [X] All new and existing tests passed.

This change is trying to enable users to dismiss tooltip using Escape key. According to Web Content Accessibility Guideline, content that appears on hover should be able to be dismissed without moving the mouse. Hopefully, this change will help Recharts users interact with the chart more easily through keyboard. P.S. The change in the test file also contains many style changes that have been automatically applied on save due to eslint rules in Recharts
