ShopProQuote UX Conventions

Modal behavior — NEVER close on outside click

User preference: modals should ONLY close via explicit Save/Close/Cancel buttons. Clicking the backdrop (outside the modal) must NOT dismiss the modal.

Files that had click-outside-to-close handlers (all removed):

File Modal Was
quote-tab-manager.js:1379 Service edit modal modal.classList.add('hidden') on e.target === modal
quote-tab-manager.js:1680 Parts availability modal closeModal() on e.target === modal
shared/customer-lookup.js:253 Customer lookup modal modal.remove() on e.target === modal
settings.js:315 Site settings modal closeModal() on e.target === modal
shared/modal-manager.js:328 Confirm dialog overlay overlay.remove(); resolve(false) on e.target === overlay

Pattern to recognize

Any modal.addEventListener('click', (e) => { if (e.target === modal) { ... } }); blocks must be removed. If adding a new modal, do NOT add an outside-click handler.

What was NOT changed (correctly)

Dropdown menus (service search, customer search, header menus) still close on outside click. This is expected UX for dropdowns — the rule only applies to modal dialogs.

Toggle checkboxes — always show the icon

Approval/decline checkboxes (green ✓ and red ✕ in the ServiceRow) must always render their SVG icon, not conditionally. When inactive the icon is grayed-out (text-gray-300), when active the icon is white on a colored background (text-white on bg-green-600 or bg-red-600).

Pattern:

// ✓ — always visible, gray when inactive, white when active
<button className={`... ${active ? 'bg-green-600 border-green-600 text-white' : 'border-gray-300 text-gray-300'}`}>
  <svg>...</svg>  // always rendered, never conditional
</button>

Do NOT wrap the SVG in {active && <svg>...</svg>} — the icon should always be visible as a preview of the action.
