Hey there! Let's break down your question about Skulpt and centered modal popups:

Skulpt itself doesn't come with built-in support for centered modal popups that automatically refocus the console after closing. But since Skulpt runs entirely in the browser, you can easily add this functionality by combining Skulpt's API with vanilla JavaScript or a frontend framework. Here's how:

1. Build a Centered Modal Popup with JavaScript #

First, create a modal component that's centered and blocks interaction with the rest of the page (modal behavior). You can do this with pure JavaScript and CSS, or use a library like Bootstrap Modals for quicker setup. For a vanilla example:

• Style the modal to be fixed-positioned, centered horizontally/vertically, with a semi-transparent overlay behind it.
• Add logic to show/hide it when triggered.

2. Connect Skulpt to Your Modal #

Skulpt lets you bridge Python code to JavaScript functions. Register a custom Python function that calls your modal's open logic:

import js

def open_centered_modal(url):
    # Call your JavaScript modal function
    js.showCenteredModal(url)

Make sure your showCenteredModal JavaScript function is accessible in Skulpt's global scope (you might need to expose it via Skulpt's configuration if you're using strict sandboxing).

3. Auto-Refocus the Console After Closing #

Add an event listener to your modal's close event that focuses the Skulpt console's input field. For example:

function showCenteredModal(url) {
    const modal = document.getElementById('your-centered-modal');
    // Load the URL content into the modal (if needed)
    modal.querySelector('.modal-content').src = url;
    modal.style.display = 'block';
    
    // Handle close event
    modal.addEventListener('close', () => {
        // Replace with your console input's actual ID
        document.getElementById('skulpt-console-input').focus();
    });
}

Key Notes #

• Skulpt's sandbox is restricted by default, so double-check that your custom JavaScript functions are properly exposed to the Skulpt runtime.
• If you're using a pre-built Skulpt console (like the one on their demo site), you'll need to inspect the DOM to find the correct input element ID for focusing.
