Proposal

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

Workspace switcher search bar is in the wrong place

What is the root cause of that problem?

We have included the everything section as a section of selection list.

App/src/pages/WorkspaceSwitcherPage/index.tsx

Lines 140 to 154 in 109d0f0

	{
	title: translate('workspace.switcher.everythingSection'),
	shouldShow: true,
	indexOffset: 0,
	data: [
	{
	text: CONST.WORKSPACE_SWITCHER.NAME,
	policyID: '',
	icons: [{source: Expensicons.ExpensifyAppIcon, name: CONST.WORKSPACE_SWITCHER.NAME, type: CONST.ICON_TYPE_AVATAR}],
	brickRoadIndicator: getIndicatorTypeForPolicy(undefined),
	isSelected: activeWorkspaceID === undefined,
	keyForList: CONST.WORKSPACE_SWITCHER.NAME,
	},
	],
	},

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

We first need to remove the section from SelectionList sections and create the jsx for everything section.

pseudo-code:

            <View style={[styles.mh4, styles.flexRow, styles.justifyContentBetween, styles.alignItemsCenter, styles.mb1]}>
                <Text
                    style={styles.label}
                    color={theme.textSupporting}
                >
                    {translate('workspace.switcher.everythingSection')}
                </Text>
            </View>
            <View>
                <UserListItem
                    item={{
                        text: CONST.WORKSPACE_SWITCHER.NAME,
                        policyID: '',
                        icons: [{source: Expensicons.ExpensifyAppIcon, name: CONST.WORKSPACE_SWITCHER.NAME, type: CONST.ICON_TYPE_AVATAR}],
                        brickRoadIndicator: getIndicatorTypeForPolicy(undefined),
                        isSelected: activeWorkspaceID === undefined,
                        keyForList: CONST.WORKSPACE_SWITCHER.NAME,
                    }}
                    isFocused={false}
                    isDisabled={false}
                    showTooltip={false}
                    canSelectMultiple={false}
                    onSelectRow={() =>
                        selectPolicy({
                            text: CONST.WORKSPACE_SWITCHER.NAME,
                            policyID: '',
                            icons: [{source: Expensicons.ExpensifyAppIcon, name: CONST.WORKSPACE_SWITCHER.NAME, type: CONST.ICON_TYPE_AVATAR}],
                            brickRoadIndicator: getIndicatorTypeForPolicy(undefined),
                            isSelected: activeWorkspaceID === undefined,
                            keyForList: CONST.WORKSPACE_SWITCHER.NAME,
                        })
                    }
                />
            </View>

This will be placed before the selection list. This is just pseudo-code, props are filled randomly. Minor styling changes can be discussed during PR phase.

Proposal

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

Search bar is below Choose workspace

What is the root cause of that problem?

This is a feature request

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

1. Pass the BaseSelectionList's current TextInput component (wrapped inside a memoized variable) as a children of section's CustomSectionHeader. Of course, we'll need to update the types accordingly:

App/src/components/SelectionList/BaseSelectionList.tsx

Lines 318 to 320 in 6b18ee9

	if (section.CustomSectionHeader) {
	return <section.CustomSectionHeader section={section} />;
	}

<section.CustomSectionHeader
    section={section}
>
    {textInput}
</section.CustomSectionHeader>

2. Inside WorkspacesSectionHeader, render that children with proper style. In WorkspaceSwitcherPage:
   • Disable shouldShowTopTextInput (new prop) to hide the current text input
   • Move headerMessage to WorkspacesSectionHeader (or we can wrap inside the above mentioned variable)
   • Use iconLeft to display the magnifier icon and modify textInputLabel to Find a workspace.

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

NA

Proposal Updated

• Added a note and result video

[gijoe0295]

Proposal updated to include detailed implementation.

[getusha]

@gijoe0295 i don't like the idea of modifying BaseSelectionList just for this since it's used multiple places.
@Krishna2323 could you provide a more complete branch to test? there are some details you missed from the design.

[Krishna2323]

@getusha test branch.

Proposal

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

Workspace switcher search bar is in the wrong place

What is the root cause of that problem?

Everything section is part of same SelectionList component. So according to SelectionList component logic every section will be under text input

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

We just need to create one more SelectionList component that have everything section inside. So everything section will be rendered on top of the text input. This way we don't need to do custom style changes for section and don't need create custom logic to replicate SelectionList functionality

<SelectionList<WorkspaceListItem>
    containerStyle={{
        flexBasis: 'auto',
        flexGrow: 0,
    }}
    ListItem={UserListItem}
    sections={everythingSection}
    onSelectRow={selectPolicy}
    initiallyFocusedOptionKey={activeWorkspaceID ?? CONST.WORKSPACE_SWITCHER.NAME}
/>
<SelectionList<WorkspaceListItem>
    ListItem={UserListItem}
    sections={sections}
    onSelectRow={selectPolicy}
    textInputLabel={usersWorkspaces.length >= CONST.WORKSPACE_SWITCHER.MINIMUM_WORKSPACES_TO_SHOW_SEARCH ? translate('common.search') : undefined}
    textInputValue={searchTerm}
    onChangeText={setSearchTerm}
    headerMessage={headerMessage}
    listFooterContent={shouldShowCreateWorkspace ? WorkspaceCardCreateAWorkspaceInstance : null}
    initiallyFocusedOptionKey={activeWorkspaceID ?? CONST.WORKSPACE_SWITCHER.NAME}
    showLoadingPlaceholder
/>

What alternative solutions did you explore? (Optional)

We can separate everything section from SelectionList component and write everything custom.

@mallenexpensify apologies for the delay, just refunded the amount on UW

[JmillsExpensify]

I think we're good here now.

@getusha we need to pay via Upwork here because you were assigned here before 5/9, your eligible date. Can you please rescind your NewDot payment request and accept this new job I created? Thx

@mallenexpensify is there a way to refund the ND payment?

[mallenexpensify]

If you've already been paid via NewDot for this, let's not complicate things with a refund. Both you and I are assigned to this issue, I'll comment there that payment is already made and link to here (assuming it's $250). Also.. let's consider this an edge case, it should not be used as a reference in the future :)

[mallenexpensify]

d'oh, looks like you haven't accepted the job in Upwork, can you plz @getusha ?
