CompositeItem
Renders a focusable item as part of a composite widget. The tabindex
attribute is automatically managed by this component based on the
virtualFocus
option.
When this component receives DOM focus or is virtually focused (when the
virtualFocus
option is set to true
), the element will automatically receive the
data-active-item
attribute. This can be used to style the focused item, no matter the focus
approach employed.
Code examples
Optional Props
accessibleWhenDisabled
boolean | undefined
Indicates whether the element should be focusable even when it is
disabled
.
This is important when discoverability is a concern. For example:
A toolbar in an editor contains a set of special smart paste functions that are disabled when the clipboard is empty or when the function is not applicable to the current content of the clipboard. It could be helpful to keep the disabled buttons focusable if the ability to discover their functionality is primarily via their presence on the toolbar.

autoFocus
boolean | undefined = false
Automatically focuses the element upon mounting, similar to the native
autoFocus
prop. This addresses an issue where the element with the native
autoFocus
attribute might receive focus before React effects are
executed.
The autoFocus
prop can also be used with
Focusable elements within a
Dialog component, establishing the
initial focus as the dialog opens.
Note: For this prop to work, the
focusable
prop must be
set to true
, if it's not set by default.
Live examples
clickOnEnter
boolean | undefined = true
If set to true
, pressing the enter key while this element is focused will
trigger a click on the element, regardless of whether it's a native button
or not. If this prop is set to false
, pressing enter will not initiate a
click.
clickOnSpace
boolean | undefined = true
If set to true
, pressing and releasing the space key while this element
is focused will trigger a click on the element, regardless of whether it's
a native button or not. If this prop is set to false
, space will not
initiate a click.
disabled
boolean | undefined = false
Determines if the element is disabled. This sets the aria-disabled
attribute accordingly, enabling support for all elements, including those
that don't support the native disabled
attribute.
This feature can be combined with the
accessibleWhenDisabled
prop to make disabled elements still accessible via keyboard.
Note: For this prop to work, the
focusable
prop must be
set to true
, if it's not set by default.
Live examples
focusable
boolean | undefined = true
Determines if Focusable features should be active on non-native focusable elements.
Note: This prop only turns off the additional features provided by the
Focusable
component.
Non-native focusable elements will lose their focusability entirely.
However, native focusable elements will retain their inherent focusability,
but without added features such as improved
autoFocus
,
accessibleWhenDisabled
,
onFocusVisible
,
etc.
getItem
((props: CollectionStoreItem) => CollectionStoreItem) | undefined
A memoized function that returns props to be passed with the item during its registration in the store.
Code examples
const getItem = useCallback((data) => ({ ...data, custom: true }), []);
id
string | undefined
The unique ID of the item. This will be used to register the item in the
store and for the element's id
attribute. If not provided, a unique ID
will be automatically generated.

moveOnKeyPress
BooleanOrCallback<React.KeyboardEvent<HTMLElement>> | undefined = true
Determines if pressing arrow keys while this item is in focus should move focus to a different item.
Note: To entirely disable focus moving within a composite widget, you
can use the
focusOnMove
prop
on the composite component instead. If you want to control the behavior
only when arrow keys are pressed, where
focusOnMove
may
not be applicable, this prop must be set on all composite items because
they each manage their own key presses, as well as on the composite
component itself.
Code examples
onFocusVisible
BivariantCallback<(event: React.SyntheticEvent<HTMLElement, Event>) => void> | undefined
Custom event handler invoked when the element gains focus through keyboard
interaction or a key press occurs while the element is in focus. This is
the programmatic equivalent of the
data-focus-visible
attribute.
Note: For this prop to work, the
focusable
prop must be
set to true
, if it's not set by default.
Live examples
render
RenderProp<React.HTMLAttributes<any> & { ref?: React.Ref<any> | undefined; }> | React.ReactElement<any, string | React.JSXElementConstructor<any>> | undefined
Allows the component to be rendered as a different HTML element or React component. The value can be a React element or a function that takes in the original component props and gives back a React element with the props merged.
Check out the Composition guide for more details.
rowId
string | undefined
The id that will be used to group items in the same row. This is usually
retrieved by the
CompositeRow
component
through context so in most cases you don't need to set it manually.
shouldRegisterItem
boolean | undefined
Determines if the item should be registered as part of the collection. If
this is set to false
, the item won't be accessible via arrow keys.
store
CompositeStore<CompositeStoreItem> | undefined
Object returned by the
useCompositeStore
hook. If not provided, the closest
Composite
or
CompositeProvider
components' context will be used.
tabbable
boolean | undefined
When the tabbable
prop is set to true
, the roving
tabindextabIndex
prop won't be assigned -1
when the item is inactive. In
addition to using arrow keys, users will be able to tab to this element,
leading to the composite widget no longer existing as a single tab stop.
As per the ARIA spec
Authors SHOULD ensure that a composite widget exists as a single navigation stop within the larger navigation system of the web page.
Additionally, as stated in
RFC-2119
SHOULD This word, or the adjective "RECOMMENDED", mean that there may exist valid reasons in particular circumstances to ignore a particular item, but the full implications must be understood and carefully weighed before choosing a different course.
Therefore, while this may be allowed, you should think carefully about the implications of using this prop.
Note: This prop has no effect when the
virtualFocus
option is enabled.

Deprecated: Use CSS
scroll-margin
Whether the scroll behavior should be prevented when pressing arrow keys on the first or the last items.
