Actual Results

Focus moves inappropriately to top of the page instead of triggering element i.e. "Create Project" button when the user close the modal dialog,
As a result, screen reader users will have to navigate the screen content again before accessing the content which is after the triggering button.

Expected Results

Ensure that the screen reader focus moves to the triggering element when the modal dialog is closed which can be achieved via JavaScript focus() method.

Workaround

Currently there is no known workaround for this behavior. A workaround will be added here when available
