Leva 0.9.35 color picker error : Cannot read properties of null (reading 'getBoundingClientRect')

[Sean-Bradley]

When pressing the color picker coloured square, a JS error occurs. ([email protected])

In Chrome and Edge, the error is,

react-dom.development.js:22878  Uncaught TypeError: Cannot read properties of null (reading 'getBoundingClientRect')
    at leva.esm.js:137:30

In FireFox, the error is written differently,

Uncaught TypeError: wrapperRef.current is null

The error does not happen with [email protected], but does occur in [email protected]

E.g., This is a minimal example. Press the green square in the Leva panel and view the browser console.

https://k6m8gm-5173.csb.app/

react 18.3.1
react-dom 18.3.1
leva 0.9.35

I have also tried react 18.2.0 and the error still occurs.

This error occurs when using a bundler locally. I have tried Vite, React-Scripts, R3F-Pack and WebPack.

The error also occurs when using the newer CodeSandbox DevBox IDE, but not the legacy Sandbox IDE.

This CodeSandbox DevBox link below demonstrates the problem, it is a Vite project.

https://codesandbox.io/p/devbox/leva-color-picker-k6m8gm?file=%2Fsrc%2Findex.jsx

And here is a zip of the mini Vite project.
sandbox.zip

unzip it,
cd into folder,

npm install
npm run dev 

Open http://localhost:5173/

And this is the minimal script.

import React from 'react'
import { createRoot } from 'react-dom/client'
import { useControls } from 'leva'

function App() {
    const color = useControls({
        value: 'lime'
    })

    return (
        <div style={{ backgroundColor: color.value }}>
            <h1>Hello, world!</h1>
            <h2>Time is {new Date().toLocaleTimeString('en-US')}.</h2>
        </div>
    )
}

createRoot(document.getElementById('root')).render(<App />)

Same problem here.

[Kreshnik]

It is specifically this line in the usePopin function for me.

const {
  height
} = wrapperRef.current.getBoundingClientRect();

Here is a band-aid until there is a fix.

Add an overrides to your package.json to lower the @radix-ui/react-portal version which Leva imports as a dependency.

  "overrides": {
    "leva": {
      "@radix-ui/react-portal": "1.0.2"
    }
  }

Run,

npm install

# vite
npm run dev

# react-scripts | r3f-pack
npm start

Thanks !

Out of curiosity, how did you get the _comment to work, though? I get:

ERR_PNPM_INVALID_SELECTOR Cannot parse the "_comment" selector
