Topic: Stepper in Modal: long form in first step bug

akrolis pro asked 3 years ago


Expected behavior

Complete Form inside the first step stepper is visible

Actual behavior

If the form in the fist step is formatted to be more than 2 rows, it doesn't show complete unless you focus on one input

It looks like in static modal stepper component is initialized before modal is opened and before step content is added to the DOM. In this case it is difficult to update the step height correctly.

Please try to use dynamic modal and add small delay for stepper init like in the following example (this is html/ts code of the dynamic modal):

https://mdbootstrap.com/docs/angular/modals/basic/#dynamic

HTML:

<mdb-stepper #stepper *ngIf="visible">
  <mdb-step name="Step 1" [stepForm]="firstFormGroup">
    <form [formGroup]="firstFormGroup">
      <div class="container-fluid">
        <div class="row">
          <div class="col">
            <div class="md-form">
              <input type="text" class="form-control" mdbInput mdbValidate formControlName="name" />
              <label for="">Name</label>
              <mdb-error *ngIf="name?.invalid && (name?.dirty || name?.touched)"
                >Input invalid</mdb-error
              >
              <mdb-success *ngIf="name?.valid && (name?.dirty || name?.touched)"
                >Input valid</mdb-success
              >
            </div>
