📖 Description
We need to disallow typing when a pill is selected.
💡 Context
The fix I introduced to prevent users typing #371 when a pill is present did not work.
The problem seems to be that the old value (
this.value
) is something like this<meeting-pill text="Start a meeting" close-button-aria-label="Delete meeting pill"/>
whilevalue
is something like/dpm{newCharacter}
, so when we didvalue.length > this.value.length
the first time, it returned false and the value was updated.So the fix I made this time was to disallow typing if keyCode is different from 8 (backspace key), so we don't need to register the length of the old and new values. If you come up with something better, please let me know, but so far this is the best I have found.
