hi,
perhaps this is something new with React 19, but I see that a “ref” can be a callback function . (see “How to manage a list of refs using a ref callback” in the React docs)
can anyone point me to an example of this using Helix? . or do you know if Helix even allows this functionality of providing a callback fn to the :ref
attribute?
thanks ,
Raphael
EDIT — I found a clue . when I use eg. (d/div ...)
to create an element, giving :ref
a callback does work; only when I use ($ MyComponent ...)
does it not seem to be working (as the fn never gets called) . if… this means anything to anyone
furthermore, when I use eg. ($ "div" {:ref ...} ...)
, it does work (and remember, I’m giving :ref
a callback fn); but if I use ($ MyComponent {:ref ...} ...)
, it does not work (the callback fn is never called) . so it seems to be something about a custom component that makes the callback ref not work
