autofocus() not working

Hello, I have this on a resource class:

public static function form(Form $form): Form
    {
        return $form
            ->schema([
                TextInput::make('title')->required()->maxLength(255)->autofocus(),
                Hidden::make('owner_id')->default(auth()->id()),
            ]);
    }

public static function form(Form $form): Form
    {
        return $form
            ->schema([
                TextInput::make('title')->required()->maxLength(255)->autofocus(),
                Hidden::make('owner_id')->default(auth()->id()),
            ]);
    }

I have a page action on the list resource page for creating new resources that uses the pre-defined CreateAction class. could that be preventing it? let me know if you need more info, cheers.

both create and edit actions produce modal forms as intended, just the autofocus isn't focusing My solution on a custom component that uses filament forms is this:

//in form schema
TextInput::make('...')
  ->extraAlpineAttributes([
    'x-ref' => 'input',
    '@focus-input.window' => '$nextTick(() => { $refs.input.focus(); } )',
])

//callback of action button
public function doAction()
{
  //perform action
  //...
  $this->dispatchBrowserEvent('focus-input');
}

//in form schema
TextInput::make('...')
  ->extraAlpineAttributes([
    'x-ref' => 'input',
    '@focus-input.window' => '$nextTick(() => { $refs.input.focus(); } )',
])

//callback of action button
public function doAction()
{
  //perform action
  //...
  $this->dispatchBrowserEvent('focus-input');
}

however trying to do it on a panel page doesn't seem to work the same way. I feel like it has something to do with the lifecycle hooks timing?

class ListMatters extends ListRecords
{
    protected static string $resource = MatterResource::class;

    protected function getActions(): array
    {
        return [
            Actions\CreateAction::make()
                ->disableCreateAnother()
                ->afterFormFilled(function() {
                    $this->dispatchBrowserEvent('focus-matter-title-input');
                })
                ->after(fn (Model $record) => redirect("/matters/$record->id")),
        ];
    }
}

class ListMatters extends ListRecords
{
    protected static string $resource = MatterResource::class;

    protected function getActions(): array
    {
        return [
            Actions\CreateAction::make()
                ->disableCreateAnother()
                ->afterFormFilled(function() {
                    $this->dispatchBrowserEvent('focus-matter-title-input');
                })
                ->after(fn (Model $record) => redirect("/matters/$record->id")),
        ];
    }
}

    public static function form(Form $form): Form
    {
        return $form
            ->schema([
                TextInput::make('title')->required()->maxLength(255)
                    ->extraAlpineAttributes([
                        'x-ref' => 'matter-title-input',
                        '@focus-matter-title-input.window' => '$nextTick(() => { $refs.matter-title-input.focus(); } )',
                    ]),
                Hidden::make('owner_id')->default(auth()->id()),
            ]);
    }

    public static function form(Form $form): Form
    {
        return $form
            ->schema([
                TextInput::make('title')->required()->maxLength(255)
                    ->extraAlpineAttributes([
                        'x-ref' => 'matter-title-input',
                        '@focus-matter-title-input.window' => '$nextTick(() => { $refs.matter-title-input.focus(); } )',
                    ]),
                Hidden::make('owner_id')->default(auth()->id()),
            ]);
    }
