Hi @FearArt. I'm kapa.ai, your friendly support bot. I will try to answer your question by searching through the knowledge base. :wave: ---------------------- If your UModal is appearing at the side of the app instead of as a centered overlay, it’s likely that you are either: 1. Using the wrong component (such as USlideover or UDrawer), which are designed to slide in from the side, or 2. Overriding the default styles or props that control the modal’s position and appearance. Correct usage for a centered overlay modal:
<template>
<UModal title="Modal with title">
<UButton label="Open" color="neutral" variant="subtle" />

<template #body>
<Placeholder class="h-48" />
</template>
</UModal>
</template>
<template>
<UModal title="Modal with title">
<UButton label="Open" color="neutral" variant="subtle" />

<template #body>
<Placeholder class="h-48" />
</template>
</UModal>
</template>
By default, UModal should appear centered with an overlay, unless you set the fullscreen prop or override the ui config in a way that changes its position. Make sure you are not using the side prop (which is for USlideover), and that you are not using USlideover or UDrawer by mistake, as those are designed to appear at the side of the screen Modal Usage Slideover Usage Drawer Usage. Check for these common issues: - Ensure you are using <UModal> and not <USlideover> or <UDrawer>. - Do not set the side prop on UModal (it does not exist for modals). - If you have customized the ui property or the modal theme in app.config.ts, make sure the content and overlay classes are not causing the modal to be positioned at the side Modal Theme. If you are still experiencing the issue, please double-check your component usage and any global style overrides. If you can share your code snippet, I can help you debug further. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Based on your code snippet, it looks like you are using custom modal components such as <RoomModal>, <RoomStatsModal>, <CorridorModal>, and <CorridorStatsModal>, and you are binding their open state with v-model:isOpen or v-model:isOpenRoom. However, according to the official Nuxt UI documentation for UModal, the correct prop for controlling the open state is v-model:open (not isOpen or isOpenRoomControl open state. What you should do: - Update your custom modal components to use v-model:open instead of v-model:isOpen or v-model:isOpenRoom. - Make sure your custom modal components are correctly passing the open prop to the underlying UModal component. Example:
<RoomModal v-if="openedRoom" v-model:open="isOpenRoomModal" @close="handleRoomClose" :user="user" :activeRoom="openedRoom"/>
<RoomStatsModal v-if="isOpenRoomInfoModal" v-model:open="isOpenRoomInfoModal" :rooms="rooms" @close="handleRoomStatsClose"/>
<CorridorModal v-if="openedCorridor" v-model:open="isOpenCorridorModal" @close="handleCorridorClose" :user="user" :activeCorridor="openedCorridor"/>
<CorridorStatsModal v-if="isOpenCorridorInfoModal" v-model:open="isOpenCorridorInfoModal" :corridor="corridors" @close="handleCorridorStatsClose"/>
<RoomModal v-if="openedRoom" v-model:open="isOpenRoomModal" @close="handleRoomClose" :user="user" :activeRoom="openedRoom"/>
<RoomStatsModal v-if="isOpenRoomInfoModal" v-model:open="isOpenRoomInfoModal" :rooms="rooms" @close="handleRoomStatsClose"/>
<CorridorModal v-if="openedCorridor" v-model:open="isOpenCorridorModal" @close="handleCorridorClose" :user="user" :activeCorridor="openedCorridor"/>
<CorridorStatsModal v-if="isOpenCorridorInfoModal" v-model:open="isOpenCorridorInfoModal" :corridor="corridors" @close="handleCorridorStatsClose"/>
Why this matters:
The UModal component expects the open prop (or v-model:open) to control its visibility. Using a different prop name will not work unless your custom modal components are explicitly mapping isOpen or isOpenRoom to open internally. If they are not, the modal may not behave as expected, including rendering in the wrong place or not showing as an overlay Props. If you are wrapping UModal in your own components, ensure you are forwarding the open prop and update:open event correctly. If after this change the modal still appears at the side, double-check that you are not accidentally using USlideover or have custom styles that override the modal's default positioning Usage. If you need more help, please share the implementation of one of your custom modal components (e.g., RoomModal). ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai the isOpen is emit from modal itself
const emit = defineEmits(['update:isOpenRoom'])
const props = defineProps({
isOpen : {
type: Boolean,
required: true
},
activeRoom : {
type: Object as PropType<Room>,
required: true
},
user: {
type: Object as PropType<User>,
required: true
}
})
const emit = defineEmits(['update:isOpenRoom'])
const props = defineProps({
isOpen : {
type: Boolean,
required: true
},
activeRoom : {
type: Object as PropType<Room>,
required: true
},
user: {
type: Object as PropType<User>,
required: true
}
})

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Based on the official Nuxt UI documentation, the UModal component expects its open state to be controlled via the open prop (or v-model:open), and emits the update:open event—not isOpen or isOpenRoom—for two-way binding Control open state Props. Your current implementation uses a custom prop and event (isOpen, update:isOpenRoom), which does not align with the expected API of UModal. Unless your custom modal component internally maps isOpen to open and emits update:open, the modal will not behave as intended. To fix this: - Change your prop to open and emit update:open from your modal component. - Use v-model:open in the parent. Example for your modal component:
const emit = defineEmits(['update:open'])
const props = defineProps({
open: {
type: Boolean,
required: true
},
activeRoom: {
type: Object as PropType<Room>,
required: true
},
user: {
type: Object as PropType<User>,
required: true
}
})
const emit = defineEmits(['update:open'])
const props = defineProps({
open: {
type: Boolean,
required: true
},
activeRoom: {
type: Object as PropType<Room>,
required: true
},
user: {
type: Object as PropType<User>,
required: true
}
})
And in your template:
<UModal v-model:open="props.open" ...>
<!-- modal content -->
</UModal>
<UModal v-model:open="props.open" ...>
<!-- modal content -->
</UModal>
In the parent:
<RoomModal v-if="openedRoom" v-model:open="isOpenRoomModal" ... />
<RoomModal v-if="openedRoom" v-model:open="isOpenRoomModal" ... />
This will ensure your modal behaves as a proper overlay and follows the Nuxt UI conventions Migration guide. If you continue to use custom prop names, you must manually map them to the expected open prop and update:open event for UModal. Otherwise, you may see unexpected behavior, such as the modal not appearing as an overlay. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai this bug occured when i've migrated from nuxt ui2 and nuxt3 to nuxtui 4 and nuxt 4
kapa.ai
kapa.ai2mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- When migrating from Nuxt UI 2/Nuxt 3 to Nuxt UI 4/Nuxt 4, there are important breaking changes in how modals are controlled and rendered. In Nuxt UI 4, the UModal component expects its open state to be managed via the open prop (or v-model:open), and emits the update:open event. The previous pattern of using custom prop names like isOpen or isOpenRoom is no longer compatible unless you explicitly map them to the new API in your custom components. From the migration guides: - The v-model:open directive and default-open prop are now used to control visibility.
- The default slot is now used for the trigger, and the content goes inside the #content slot. - The global Modals component has been removed in favor of the UApp component, which provides the overlay context Migration to v3 - Changed components Migration to v4. Why your bug occurred:
If your modal appears at the side of the app instead of as an overlay, it is likely because your custom modal components are still using the old prop/event names (isOpen, update:isOpenRoom) and are not forwarding them as open/update:open to the underlying UModal. This breaks the expected behavior in Nuxt UI 4, causing rendering issues. How to fix:
Update your custom modal components to use the open prop and emit update:open, and use v-model:open in the parent. This aligns with the new API and will restore the correct overlay behavior. For more details and examples, see the official migration documentation: - Migration to v3 - Changed components - Migration to v4 ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- There is no explicit mention in the Nuxt UI or Nuxt documentation that wrapping your <RouterView> (or <NuxtPage>) in a <div class="flex items-center justify-center align-middle h-full"> will directly cause issues with overlays or modals. However, based on the official Nuxt UI installation guide, it is recommended to wrap your app content with the <UApp> component to ensure overlays, modals, and toasts work correctly. The documentation also suggests adding the isolate class to your root container to prevent stacking context issues with overlays Wrap your app with App component. If your flex container or its parent does not have the correct height or stacking context, it could potentially interfere with the modal's overlay or centering. For example, if h-full does not actually fill the viewport due to parent containers not being full height, the modal or overlay may not display as intended. Recommendation:
- Ensure you are using <UApp> as the root wrapper for your app. - Make sure the isolate class is applied to your root container. - Double-check that your layout allows the modal overlay to cover the entire viewport. If you follow these recommendations, your flex container should not cause issues, but if you experience problems with overlays not covering the full screen or modals not being centered, review your layout and stacking context as described above Wrap your app with App component. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Your app.vue structure generally follows the Nuxt UI recommendation of wrapping your app with <UApp>, which is required for overlays, modals, toasts, and tooltips to work correctly Wrap your app with App component. However, there are a few layout considerations to ensure overlays (like UModal) display as intended: 1. Stacking Context and Full Height:
The modal overlay is designed to cover the entire viewport. If any parent container (such as your inner <div class="w-full h-full"> or <div class="flex items-center justify-center align-middle h-full">) does not actually fill the viewport (because its parent does not have height: 100%), the overlay may not display correctly. The Nuxt UI docs recommend using the isolate class on your root container to prevent stacking context issues Wrap your app with App component. 2. Recommended Layout:
The official example for app.vue is:
<template>
<UApp>
<NuxtPage />
</UApp>
</template>

<template>
<UApp>
<NuxtPage />
</UApp>
</template>

Or, if you want a header/footer:
<template>
<UApp>
<header>...</header>
<NuxtPage />
<footer>...</footer>
</UApp>
</template>

<template>
<UApp>
<header>...</header>
<NuxtPage />
<footer>...</footer>
</UApp>
</template>

This ensures that overlays are rendered above all content and are not restricted by inner containers App component usage. 3. Potential Issue in Your Layout:
Wrapping your entire app in a <div class="w-full h-full"> and then using nested flex containers may unintentionally restrict the height of the overlay, especially if the parent containers do not have min-h-screen or similar. This could cause modals to appear off-center or not cover the full screen. Recommendation:
- Ensure your root container (the one inside <UApp>) either uses min-h-screen or does not restrict height. - Consider removing unnecessary wrappers or using the recommended layout structure. - Add the isolate class to your root container in app.vue or in your main HTML file to avoid stacking context issues. Summary:
Your use of <UApp> is correct, but the nested <div class="w-full h-full"> and flex containers may cause issues with overlays if they do not fill the viewport. Adjust your layout to match the Nuxt UI recommendations for best results Wrap your app with App component. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

kapa.ai
kapa.ai2mo ago
Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Certainly! Here is a fixed version of your app.vue that follows Nuxt UI and Nuxt 4 best practices for overlays and modals: - The layout is simplified to avoid unnecessary wrappers that could interfere with overlays. - The root container uses <UApp> as recommended. - The main content is rendered with <NuxtPage /> (or <RouterView /> if you are using Vue Router directly, but Nuxt recommends <NuxtPage />). - The footer is placed outside the main content, and no inner container restricts the height or stacking context. - If you want to ensure overlays work perfectly, you can add the isolate class to your root container in your main HTML file, but this is not strictly required in app.vue when using <UApp>.

One moment! :books: ---------------------- If your modal is now appearing at the bottom of the screen, this typically means that the modal's open state is not being controlled correctly, or the modal component is not using the correct prop (open) and event (update:open) as required by Nuxt UI 4. This is a common migration issue from Nuxt UI 2 to Nuxt UI 4. Key points from the knowledge sources: - In Nuxt UI 4, the UModal component must be controlled with the open prop (or v-model:open), and emits the update:open event. Using custom prop names like isOpen or isOpenRoom will not work unless you map them to open internally in your custom modal component Migration to v3 - Changed components Modal Usage. - If you do not use the correct prop/event, the modal may render in an unexpected position, such as at the bottom of the page, instead of as a centered overlay Modal Usage. What you should do: 1. Update your custom modal components to use the open prop and emit update:open:
const emit = defineEmits(['update:open'])
const props = defineProps({
open: {
type: Boolean,
required: true
},
// ...other props
})

const emit = defineEmits(['update:open'])
const props = defineProps({
open: {
type: Boolean,
required: true
},
// ...other props
})

2. Use v-model:open in the parent:
<RoomModal v-model:open="isOpenRoomModal" ... />

<RoomModal v-model:open="isOpenRoomModal" ... />

3. Ensure your modal template uses <UModal v-model:open="props.open" ...>. By following these steps, your modal should appear as a centered overlay, not at the bottom of the screen. If you have already done this and the issue persists, double-check that you are not overriding modal styles or using a layout that restricts the modal's positioning Modal Theme. If you need more help, please share the implementation of your custom modal component so it can be reviewed for correct prop and event usage. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

@kapa.ai i don't have update:open can you provide me codeblocks what to change?

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Certainly!
Based on the official Nuxt UI documentation, your custom modal component must use the open prop and emit the update:open event for two-way binding with v-model:open. This is required for correct overlay/modal behavior in Nuxt UI 4 Control open state Migration to v3 - Changed components. Here’s how to update your modal component: 1. Update Props and Emits Before:
const emit = defineEmits(['update:isOpenRoom'])
const props = defineProps({
isOpen : {
type: Boolean,
required: true
},
// ...
})
const emit = defineEmits(['update:isOpenRoom'])
const props = defineProps({
isOpen : {
type: Boolean,
required: true
},
// ...
})
After:
const emit = defineEmits(['update:open'])
const props = defineProps({
open: {
type: Boolean,
required: true
},
// ...
})
const emit = defineEmits(['update:open'])
const props = defineProps({
open: {
type: Boolean,
required: true
},
// ...
})
--- 2. Use the Prop and Emit in Your Template Before:
<UModal :open="props.isOpen" @close="emit('update:isOpenRoom', false)">
<!-- ... -->
</UModal>
<UModal :open="props.isOpen" @close="emit('update:isOpenRoom', false)">
<!-- ... -->
</UModal>
After:
<UModal
:open="props.open"
@update:open="emit('update:open', $event)"
@close="emit('update:open', false)"
>
<!-- ... -->
</UModal>
<UModal
:open="props.open"
@update:open="emit('update:open', $event)"
@close="emit('update:open', false)"
>
<!-- ... -->
</UModal>
--- 3. Use in Parent Component Before:
<RoomModal v-model:isOpenRoom="isOpenRoomModal" ... />
<RoomModal v-model:isOpenRoom="isOpenRoomModal" ... />
After:
<RoomModal v-model:open="isOpenRoomModal" ... />
<RoomModal v-model:open="isOpenRoomModal" ... />
--- Summary:
- Use the open prop and update:open event in your modal component. - Use v-model:open in the parent. - This will ensure your modal works as a proper overlay in Nuxt UI 4 Control open state. If you follow these changes, your modal should display correctly as a centered overlay. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Based on the official Nuxt UI documentation, the content inside a UModal should be placed using the appropriate slots. In Nuxt UI 4, the default slot of UModal is used for the trigger (such as a button to open the modal), and the actual modal content should be placed inside the #content, #body, or other named slots Modal Usage Migration to v3 - Changed components.

@kapa.ai i have both #header #content and #footer templates

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! :books: ---------------------- Yes, you can use the #header, #content, and #footer slots together in UModal, but it's important to understand how these slots interact in Nuxt UI 4. According to the official documentation, the UModal component provides several slots, including default, content, header, title, description, actions, close, body, and footer Modal Slots. The recommended approach is: - The default slot is for the trigger (e.g., a button to open the modal). - The #content slot is for the main modal content.
- Inside the #content slot, you can further use #header, #body, and #footer slots to structure your modal content, similar to how you would with the Card component. However, if you use the #content slot, the modal's default header (which includes the title, description, and close button) will not be rendered automatically. You are responsible for rendering the header, body, and footer inside the #content slot if you want to customize them Modal Usage. Example:
<UModal :open="open" @update:open="open = $event">
<template #content>
<div>
<!-- Custom header -->
<div>
<h2>My Custom Header</h2>
</div>
<!-- Custom body -->
<div>
Modal body content here
</div>
<!-- Custom footer -->
<div>
<button @click="open = false">Close</button>
</div>
</div>
</template>
</UModal>
<UModal :open="open" @update:open="open = $event">
<template #content>
<div>
<!-- Custom header -->
<div>
<h2>My Custom Header</h2>
</div>
<!-- Custom body -->
<div>
Modal body content here
</div>
<!-- Custom footer -->
<div>
<button @click="open = false">Close</button>
</div>
</div>
</template>
</UModal>
Alternatively, if you want to use the built-in modal header (with title, description, and close button), you should use the title and description props and place your content in the #body and #footer slots, not in #content:
<UModal :open="open" title="My Modal" description="Description here" @update:open="open = $event">
<template #body>
Modal body content here
</template>
<template #footer>
<button @click="open = false">Close</button>
</template>
</UModal>
<UModal :open="open" title="My Modal" description="Description here" @update:open="open = $event">
<template #body>
Modal body content here
</template>
<template #footer>
<button @click="open = false">Close</button>
</template>
</UModal>
Summary:
- If you use #content, you must handle the header, body, and footer yourself. - If you want the default modal header, use title/description props and the #body/#footer slots, not #content. This behavior is confirmed in the official documentation and migration guide Modal Usage Migration to v3 - Changed components. ---------------------- Note: you can ask me a follow up question by @ mentioning me again :speech_balloon: ----------------------
