Keyboard causes modal to disappear React-Native

The workflow of what I am trying to do is the following:



    1. User clicks on hamburger icon and gets a dropdown.


    1. User clicks on rename.


    1. A modal appears with a TextInput and two buttons to accept and cancel.



The problem I am facing is between 2/3. As I click on rename, the modal appears momentarily, but then disappears as the keyboard shows up. Even though I cannot see the modal, my keystrokes still register to the TextInput. When I close the keyboard, the modal appears again.




Here is my code:



<Modal
animationType="slide"
transparent=true
visible=renaming
onRequestClose=() =>
Alert.alert('Modal has been closed.');
>
<KeyboardAvoidingView style=styles.modalMask behavior="padding">
<View style=styles.modalContainer>
unitType === 'file' ?
<Text style=styles.modalHeader>Rename clip:</Text>
:
<Text style=styles.modalHeader>Rename folder:</Text>


<TextInput
style=styles.modalInput
onChangeText=(newTitle) => this.setState(title: newTitle)
defaultValue='tits'
autoFocus=true
selectTextOnFocus=true
keyboardAppearance='dark'
maxLength=30
/>

<View style=styles.modalOptions>
<TouchableHighlight
onPress=() =>
this.handleCloseModal();

style=styles.modalOption
>
<Text>CANCEL</Text>
</TouchableHighlight>

<TouchableHighlight
onPress=() =>
this.handleRename(id, unitType)

style=[styles.modalOption, styles.renameOption]
>
<Text style=color: 'white'>RENAME</Text>
</TouchableHighlight>
</View>

</View>
</KeyboardAvoidingView>
</Modal>

  • the problem is that I cannot see the modal as I am typing. the problem is strictly UI, as I can successfully input data, and I successfully send that data to the store.
