Topic: close modal on back button click

itay pro asked 5 years ago


Expected behavior

Modal and sidebar closes when back button is clicked on mobile Android

Actual behavior

Modal and sidebar remain visible, yet the view state below revert to previous state. How can I close the modal on back button click on Android mobile ?

Resources (screenshots, code snippets etc.)

Please use this code:

  showModal() {
    history.pushState(null, 'modalOpened');
    this.modal.show();
  }

  hideModal() {

  }

  ngOnInit() {
    this.location.onPopState(() => this.modal.hide());
  }

I added fake history state in 'showModal' method to prevent route change on back button. Hope that helps.

The challenge is to close the modal instead of changing the route, in case a modal is open

I assume that there is a route change when you use back button. In this case you can listen to router events and use hide() method to close the modal.

this.router.events.subscribe((event: Event) => {
    // close your modal here
});
