Actual Results

When users activate the “Load more assets” or “Quick add A…” buttons within the expanded “Add object to Affected Asset (Test)” content, keyboard focus unexpectedly moves to the top of the page instead of remaining within the current focus sequence.
As a result, keyboard-only and screen reader users must navigate through previously encountered content before reaching the content that follows the activated button. This creates unnecessary navigation and makes the interaction inefficient and difficult to use.

Expected Results

Keyboard focus should remain within the current interaction flow and move to the appropriate control or next logical interactive element after activation.

Apply the following changes:

• Retain focus on the “Load more assets” button after loading additional assets, when the button remains available.
• When “Quick add A…” is activated and the triggering button is removed, move focus programmatically to the next logical focusable element.

Workaround
