Focus Management Issue

Actual Results

When the “How can I help, Chirag?” Rovo Chat non-modal dialog is closed, programmatic focus does not return to the triggering “Ask Rovo” button. Instead, focus moves to the beginning of the page, requiring screen reader and keyboard-only users to navigate through the page content before they can interact with content following the triggering element.

Expected Results

The programmatic focus of users should be set on the triggering element of the dialog as soon as the dialog is closed.

Use JavaScript’s .focus() method to move keyboard focus back to the triggering element.
