Draggable Modal - Fix for Issue #1056

+ +
+ + + +
+ +
+

Current Style:

+ 
+            {JSON.stringify(modalStyle.content, null, 2)}
+
+

+ Status: {useLeftZero + ? '❌ left: 0 applied (would break dragging in unfixed version)' + : '✅ left: 50% applied (normal centering)'} +

+
+ + +
+ {/* Drag Handle */} +
+

+ 🎯 Drag me by this header +

+

+ Click and drag this blue area to move the modal +

+
+ + {/* Modal Content */} +
+

Issue #1056 - FIXED! ✅

+ +

+ Problem: When left: 0 is applied as an inline style, + dragging doesn't work because the inline style has higher specificity than + the dynamically updated styles from the drag handler. +

+ +

+ Solution: Use CSS transform: translate() for drag + positioning instead of modifying left and top properties. + Transform operates independently and doesn't conflict with inline positioning styles. +

+ +
+

✅ What Works Now:

+
    +
  • Dragging works with left: 0
    • +
  • Dragging works with left: 50%
    • +
  • Dragging works with any inline positioning
    • +
  • All original modal functionality preserved
    • +
