Open SimpleSelect with Apple selected, then set isDisabled while the list is open. Clicking Orange still selects it and calls onSelect.

The shared selection handler now checks the current disabled state before changing the selected option or calling onSelect.

Walkthrough

SimpleSelect now ignores selection attempts while disabled. A regression test confirms that disabling an open menu prevents a new selection and preserves the current option.

Changes

Disabled SimpleSelect selection

Layer / File(s) Summary
Guard disabled selection and test open-menu behavior
packages/react-templates/src/components/Select/SimpleSelect.tsx, packages/react-templates/src/components/Select/__tests__/SimpleSelect.test.tsx
The selection handler returns when disabled. A regression test checks that an open menu does not select Orange after it becomes disabled and continues to display Apple.

Explanation

The title states the main change: SimpleSelect no longer allows selection while disabled. The raw summary confirms the selection handler now returns early when isDisabled is true, and a test covers the case. The title matches the linked objectives (issue #12711, PR #12712), so the check passes.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #12711 requires that, after SimpleSelect is disabled while open, clicking Orange leaves Apple selected and does not call onSelect. The reviewed head file packages/react-templates/src/components/Select/SimpleSelect.tsx shows that the shared handler _onSelect returns at the start when isDisabled is true, before onSelect, setSelected, onToggle, or setIsOpen run. Because _onSelect is recreated on each render, it reads the current isDisabled prop. This matches the expected behavior in the issue. The PR summary also reports a regression test that rerenders SimpleSelect as disabled, clicks Orange, and expects no onSelect call and Apple still shown. I could not read that test file or the base-to-head text diff (changed blobs were unavailable), so the test content rests on the summary only. The coding requirement is met by the head source.

Full details: Out of Scope Changes check

Explanation

The changes in scope are the disabled guard in SimpleSelect's selection handler and a regression test for SimpleSelect. The guard implements the issue #12711 requirement directly. The test verifies that requirement. No unrelated functional change is shown in the PR summary or the head SimpleSelect.tsx file. The base-to-head diff could not be read, so attribution of the guard to this PR relies on the summary, but the guard's behavior at head is within the linked issue scope either way.

Block option actions when the select becomes disabled.

If an open SimpleSelect becomes disabled, this return blocks onSelect but does not block an option's onClick. MenuItem invokes that callback after the selection handler. A link option can also remain actionable. Apply the disabled state to the rendered options so an option click cannot run its own action. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
