Child slot component not dismissing on backpress

[slickorange]

I have a MainComponent with bottom navigation and each bottom navigation item has their own child stack.

MainComponent Child stack:

    override val childStack = childStack(
        source = navigation,
        serializer = MainConfig.serializer(),
        initialStack = {
            val initialStack = mutableListOf<MainConfig>()
            initialStack.add(MainConfig.Stories)
            handleDeepLink(deepLink, initialStack)
            initialStack
        },
        handleBackButton = true,
        childFactory = ::createChild
    )

Child component (bottom navigation item) child stack:

    val childStack = childStack(
        source = navigation,
        serializer = Config.serializer(),
        initialConfiguration = Config.Main,
        handleBackButton = true,
        childFactory = ::createChild,
        key = "StoriesChildStack"
    )

And then I have a SlotNavigation in my MainComponent:

    private val _filteringNavigation = SlotNavigation<FilteringConfig>()
    override val filteringSlot: Value<ChildSlot<*, FilteringComponent>> = childSlot(
        source = _filteringNavigation,
        serializer = null,
        handleBackButton = true
    ) { _: FilteringConfig, componentContext: ComponentContext ->
        FilteringComponent(
            componentContext = componentContext,
            onDismiss = {
                _filteringNavigation.dismiss()
            }
        )
    }

The slot only dismisses if all the other stacks are on their root components.. otherwise it goes back in those other components even while the slot is active.. (In other words, I cant get the slot to capture the backpress event first.. its consumed by other components.)

I have tried registering a manual back handler with a high priority etc.. but nothing seems to work..

What am I missing?

Do you have both stack and slot in your Main component? If so, you need to put your slot property below the stack property.

@arkivanov Thank you, that fixed the problem!
