Has anyone implemented a UI kit made for desktops? Material design seems unusable on desktops, while it works great for mobile

Hello. I am using the

Canvas

composable in my compose desktop app. I have found that the

Canvas.onDraw

method is called multiple times although the size of the canvas has not canged. This leads to jank since the drawing is quite intensive. Next to the canvas i have a couple of items that are clickable() so they show hoover feedback for the mouse cursor. Even just hoovering over these unrelated items triggers a redraw of the canvas. Is there a way to circumvent this redrawing?

Sorta random. I see skia and skiko in a bunch of places. I'm ignorant to what they are and what they mean. Any reasoning behind the name? skiko is an interesting name to me. lol

I'm thrilled to announce that we just released our first beta version of a peer2peer chat application we're building using compose for desktop. More details in the thread 👇

I have seen that

shadow

has a different source of light in desktop (left top) respect to Android (center top). I think the common

Modifier

should have the same behavior in both platform and if a design system like Material needs to change the position, should create an additional modifier, but not sure if

shadow

should be renamed to

basicShadow

similar to

BasicText

and

Button

Currently, if an uncaught exception happens in the app, a dialog is created with an error message based on the message of the exception. How do we stop this behavior and implement our own handling?

When I build a compose-desktop project by Intellij, It sets gradle's vesion to 7.0.1 as default. But i want to set it to 7.2. How can i change this config.

Setting up a multi-platform Compose library project I am just trying to set up a multi-platform Compose library project which I want to install in mavenLocal. I started with a multi-platform Kotlin (Kotlin Gradle DSL) library project template generated by IntelliJ but then I somehow failed to properly add the necessary Compose dependencies. At the moment I am only targeting JVM (desktop) and Android. Can someone show me what is necessary to go from that template to a working one with support for Compose? I am anything else but a Gradle expert.

Why the first

size

has preference here`Modifier.size(200.dp).size(400.dp)` and the second is completely ignored?

https://plugins.jetbrains.com/plugin/18439-compose-for-ide-plugin-development-experimental- Should we use this over the plugin template included in the JB compose repo?

I am super excited to see all of the samples updated to use latest AGP. I get these red lines when opening up the project in AS. Should I file a bug against jb-compose... gradle, intellij or AS?

Does anyone know of a way to alter this icon for the mounted DMG? I thought I filed a ticket around this months ago but I can’t find it.

For a multiplatform project containing android, iOS and js, Is there any way you can continue using

commonMain

dependencies for compose and just tell the iOS target not to try finding the dependencies for compose? Or do I need to set up the compose dependencies for each target?

Is there any more information about the compose for iOS now？

I have the same problem as this https://kotlinlang.slack.com/archives/C01D6HTPATV/p1628328836205900 What is the correct way of including Coil in the dependencies?

Is there a way to package an application into an EXE that isn't an installer? I want to share something with friends that they can just run without them having to worry about things being installed on their system. I saw mention of installer and app-image exes in this channel, but idk if that's what I'm looking for or where to read up on it

Alpha-dev jumped from 1.1.0 to 1.2.0. Intentional?

I’m trying to build for android using version

1.2.0-alpha1-dev578

, but I run into

Could not find org.jetbrains.compose.foundation:foundation-layout-android-debug:1.2.0-alpha1-dev578

I can build for desktop just fine. Looking at the dependency history on maven, this hasn’’t been updated in a while: https://mvnrepository.com/artifact/org.jetbrains.compose.foundation/foundation-android-debug I’m not quite sure why it’s only erroring now.

I’ve the Compose plugin installed in my intelliJ, but

@Preview

doesn’t show the ▶️ icon ? 🤔 What am i missing?

I want to draw behind the window title bar but I don’t want to worry about having to recreate the window decorations (shape and buttons). Any solution?

Hello! On desktop version of Compose I've faced with this:

Scaffold(
        drawerContent = {} // if this is commented out then exception will not be raised on right click on TextField
    ) {
        var value by remember { "".toMutableState2() }
        TextField(value, onValueChange = { value = it })
    }

If right click on TextField exception occurs:

Does anybody have the proguard setup outlined in the tutorial set up in a real project (I'm getting some errors in the buildscript, so maybe some details aren't 100% working and needs some polishing?) In particular I'm getting "Unresolved reference" for 

val packageUberJarForCurrentOS by getting

Hey! Not sure if am I allowed (delete the message if not) but I'd like to share a project with Compose Desktop that I've been working on for quite some time in my free time. It's a Git client based on Compose+JGit. It's still an alpha (still missing quite some features) but feel free to give it a try. PD: The UI/UX need to improve a lot but I haven't got into that yet, I want to have the features ready first. https://github.com/aeab13/Gitnuro/

I didn't find an awesome list for compose for desktop, but I think we should have one: https://github.com/sebkur/awesome-compose-for-desktop

When using the multiplatform-template to set up a new compose for desktop project, I’m not able to create a new package inside

Using IDEA 2021.3.2 Any advice?

Hi! Can compose desktop be used natively? I’d like to run a little program on a Raspberry Pi algonside some video libraries

If you have a TextField and click it, it gets focus. If you click outside of it on the background, the TextField retains focus, unlike in pretty much every other desktop program (click the message box in Slack, then click anywhere outside of it). 1. Is that actually what happens, or is my project somehow messed up? 2. Is there a way to fix this that isn't "add a modifier to everything to request focus"?

A little weekend side project using Compose canvas This is taking daily visit numbers to a Wikipedia page (Prime Number, MRNA, Sourdough) from for the last 4 years, and mapping them to compare yearly and monthly trends, as well as the breakdown by the day of the week So for example the first chart shows that throughout "regular" school year months, visits to the Prime Number page were mostly through the weekdays, and down on the weekends. Then a huge spike in late summer / early fall of 2020 as pretty much all schools went virtual, going into the rest of 2020 and the winter / spring semesters of 2021. And the drop off around Christmas week as everybody is off For MRNA - huge spike when this technology was announced as the basis for the upcoming vaccines in late 2020. And for sourdough - when everybody was baking their own bread right when the shutdowns started in March 2020.

This is more of a Compose Desktop Gradle-level question — How to include secrets (like API keys) in a Compose-Desktop project without committing to Git? For example, we have

buildConfigField()

in build.gradle in Android projects, which generates the BuildConfig.java file, and that can be used during runtime. Is there a similar approach in Compose Desktop projects so that I can add secrets as System Env variable (or even a git-ignored properties file) and don't have to commit it? I added a question on StackOverflow just now: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/71002334/compose-desktop-projects-how-to-include-api-keys-or-other-secrets-without-com
