What’s New

Accessibility

• Tooltip: The tooltip is now dismissed when the user presses the Escape key, meeting the WCAG 1.4.13 (Content on Hover or Focus) dismissable requirement.
• Popover: The popover is now dismissed when the user presses the Escape key, meeting the same WCAG 1.4.13 requirement.
• Modal: The modal is now dismissed on Escape keydown, ensuring consistent handling of the Escape key across overlay components.

Testing

• Added tests covering Escape key dismissal for the Tooltip and Popover components.

Migration Notes

This is a maintenance release with no breaking changes announced in the published release notes. After upgrading:

1. Install updated dependencies.
2. Run your test suite and verify the build.
3. If your application handles the Escape key around tooltips, popovers, or modals, verify that your own handlers still behave as expected alongside the built-in dismissal.
