kotlinlang #compose-desktop

is there any recommendation of which build I should use to start a project? is there one that is more stable than another? am I supposed to update to the latest version every few days?

Build 149 (requires Kotlin 1.4.30) is out. Breaking change -

AppWindowAmbient

has been renamed to

LocalAppWindow

. Also API changes to query

PaddingValues

:jetpack-compose: Can we expect an official navigation library for compose desktop? and If there's going to be one, would it follow same API structure as Jetpack Navigation? (NavHost, NavController and those stuffs)

❓ How can I access

packageName

defined inside

build.gradle.kts

inside

main

method? Is there any API available?

❓ What is the recommended way to customize the TitleBar? I know it can be disabled by

undecorated

flag, but how do I provide a custom Composable?

why is this error showing upon building ? itemsIndexed() not resolved in lazyColumn ,However it is .

[SOLVED] The

Icons.*

doesn't contain some of the material icons. Does desktop compose has an extended icon dependency available, like

androidx.compose.material:material-icons-extended

specified in the docs ?

After updating to build150 + Kotlin 1.4.30, IntelliJ is full of the following errors.. Anybody has seen this ?

in recent updates of plugin

id("org.jetbrains.compose")

setContent was made internal so limiting it to desktop only? and use android compose variant for android and not use the above for both in a KMP project? right?

Is there currently a way to do shift click and cntrl clicks in a list to select multiple values?

Ok. I'm dumb as a stump and can't get a list to update. I've got a window with a lazycolumnfor, but when I update the remembered value, the ui doesn't update. im expecting theres a onUpdate or similar I'm missing. Can someone point me to a sample with a CRUD list?

@Dmitry Romanov [JB] and others who are interested. I've posted my current side project to GitHub. It uses Compose for Desktop, Coroutines, and Exposed with SQLite in an MVI architecture. It's about 3/4th's of the way complete to version 1 at this point. https://github.com/recursiveg87/Grim-Locations

I am out of ideas here!, as every else plugin points correctly to build146 as following image shows:

Build 152 is in. The biggest API changes are probably around https://android-review.googlesource.com/c/platform/frameworks/support/+/1572682 that renamed a bunch of size modifiers.

Hello, I'm trying out compose desktop and I have a

TextField

displaying, but I can't past into it with the keyboard. Is there a way to enable this? My google searching has returned very little.

Hey All, I am sharing Compose code in Android And Desktop , only thing left is Drawables.. Any approach to use local resources in common code, As there is vectorXmlResource() method for desktop & painterResource()/vectorResource() for Android , But No method to use in Common/Shared Compose Code...

If I have a suspend function that I want to call on a button click event what's the best way to do that? Example

Button(
   onClick = { runit() }
) {
  Text("Run")
}

Where runit is the suspend function. I can put it in a runBlocking, but that locks up the whole UI and seems incorrect in this situation.

Is anybody pushing snapshot builds to Sonatype staging built against the latest Compose Desktop builds and Kotlin 1.4.30? It started failing for me after switching to CD builds that require 1.4.30.

The exception is at https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-jb/issues/365

To close the loop on this, if you're using

com.vanniktech:gradle-maven-publish-plugin

to push your snapshot / release builds, and you've upgraded to Kotlin 1.4.30 for your multi-platform project, you need to upgrade to version

0.14.0

of the plugin. See https://github.com/vanniktech/gradle-maven-publish-plugin/issues/185
