Why can’t I enter text use the keyboard?

I've tried using a common

kotlin.srcDir

in both Android/Desktop source sets, which compiles perfecty but I get lots of red imports in Android Studio

🔧 Here's a tiny tool for my fellow Compose Desktop developers 😇 ⌨️ create-compose-desktop-app, a tool that gives you a massive head start when building Compose Desktop apps. ➡️ GitHub : https://github.com/theapache64/create-compose-desktop-app

Hey! There is a breaking change in 0.4.0-build212 These classes:

androidx.compose.ui.window.Dialog
androidx.compose.ui.window.MenuBar
androidx.compose.ui.window.Tray

moved to another package:

androidx.compose.ui.window.v1.Dialog
androidx.compose.ui.window.v1.MenuBar
androidx.compose.ui.window.v1.Tray

We are developing the new Composable Window API And it conflicts with the old one, so we have to do this (to keep the package 

androidx.compose.ui.window

 for 1.0). The new window API will be provided as experimental in upcoming releases, but eventually it will supersede the old one. (

AppWindow, AppManager, androidx.compose.ui.window.v1.*, androidx.compose.desktop.Window

).

#compose Alien Invasion in Jetpack compose 👾👾👾 https://github.com/ch8n/Compose-SpaceWars

This structure of the project provided its assembly without problems up to build190. But with build198, an internal compiler error began to appear. This is my first acquaintance with the Gradle build system and the Compose library, and in general with Kotlin. I had to review a lot of resources before building a project structure that satisfied me, but maybe there is some fundamental error in it that leads to the above problem...

👋 Hi everyone! I haven't used compose desktop since I had a bunch of issues with m3, but with m4 today I just want to say congrats to the team. The experience in getting started with a template is much easier. Things just all seem to work. Less issues and less hacks to get around weird issues. kotlin 1.5+ works, gradle 7 works, agp 7+ works. I filed a bunch of tiny little bugs on github, but overall just want to say thank you! I think this is ready for me to try to integrate into my compose Android app!!!

A bit of headhunting. Our team at JetBrains is looking for testing guru to make Compose testing experience amazing. See https://www.jetbrains.com/careers/jobs/senior-test-developer-multiplatform-compose-team-599/ for requirements and perks.

Can I do compose desktop development on IntelliJ IDEA CE?

guys I made

Fruit Ninja

Performance seems to have improved on 0.4.0 for mac by moving to metal. I can no longer see individual frames on my decompose screen transition animations.

Gsync is pesky. What version of compose desktop are you using?

I created an issue with all my findings here: https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-jb/issues/773

Can I initialize compose-desktop by passing window context e.g from glfw?

Added a little bit more to Aurora's popups. It now properly tracks data changes like toggle state in the panel (01545A color button), toggle menu buttons ("Text Only" at the bottom) and a per-entry option to not dismiss the popup on click (so that multiple toggle options can be selected without having to open the menu multiple times)

The life of a cross-platform desktop app developer

I’d like to include some additional files to my app’s binary before it gets packaged as a

.dmg

for macOS. jpackage has this information in their documentation. What would this translate to with compose for desktop?

does anyone know if compose for desktop running on Kotlin Native is on the roadmap?

Hi Guys I have Implemented an Ant 🐜

Flocking Algorithm

in Jetpack Compose Canvas API 🚀 - I created the implementation of 2D Vectors in

p5js

in

Kotlin

, you can see the implementation [here](https://github.com/ch8n/Compose-boids-flocking/blob/main/src/main/kotlin/utils.kt) - Used vector to resolve the forces acting on the particles cohesion, Alignment and Separation - Lastly created a push force vector for mouse checkout the code from here https://github.com/ch8n/Compose-boids-flocking share some love on twitter if you like it https://twitter.com/Ch8n2/status/1406395627173384192?s=20

Hello All 👋 , I’ve made JetQuotes Desktop App with Compose Desktop 👇 (GitHub Link Included ✅). Thanks to this awesome community 🙌 ❤️ https://twitter.com/sanjay_spikey/status/1406566246812848130?s=20

Hello, I'm trying to figure out what am I doing wrong with calendar

LazyVerticalGrid

building. Sometimes it adds an empty row after the grid itself (1 and 4 screenshots) and sometimes it doesn't (2 and 3). The full code is here

fun main() = application {
    Window {
        val numDays: Int = 31
        val firstDayOfWeek = 4
        val lastDayOfWeek = 7
        MaterialTheme {
            Column {
                Row() {
                    LazyVerticalGrid(cells = GridCells.Fixed(7)) {
                        repeat(firstDayOfWeek) {
                            item {
                                Box(Modifier.size(40.dp)) {
                                    Text("-")
                                }
                            }
                        }
                        repeat(numDays) { day ->
                            item {
                                Box(Modifier.size(40.dp)) {
                                    Text("${day + 1}")
                                }
                            }
                        }
                        repeat(7 - lastDayOfWeek) {
                            item {
                                Box(Modifier.size(40.dp)) {
                                    Text("-")
                                }
                            }
                        }
                    }
                }
                Row(horizontalArrangement = Arrangement.End, modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth()) {
                    Button(onClick = {}) {
                        Text("OK")
                    }
                    Spacer(Modifier.width(10.dp))
                    Button(
                        onClick = {},
                        colors = ButtonDefaults.buttonColors(backgroundColor = MaterialTheme.colors.error),
                    ) {
                        Text("Cancel")
                    }
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Does anybody know if I do something wrong or it's a bug or something like that?

window can set roundcorner shape ?

Is there any FolderPicker ?!

Deleted my previous message about

CompositionLocalProvider

not working. User error 🙂

Alright, another noob question... I have an existing Android only project and it has an

app

module, and then a

my_composables

module. I converted the project to support kmm in order to get compose for desktop working. Now

my_composables

is a kmm module with

androidMain
commonMain
desktopMain
main

I put a brand new

HelloWorld

composable in common, and can now use that common composable in my

app

module and

desktopApp

module. All is good with the world AND I can slowly migrate my android only composables from

main

into

commonMain

. That's my current strategy. Slowly migrate from

main

into

commonMain

. Is that "bad" or wrong? Should I just shove everything into

androidMain

? Basically asking "is

main

in a kmm module a bad pattern?"

Just an FYI to everyone. You can use @Preview on desktop, but not in common code yet. I'm going to try later this week to create a common annotation as per this comment on github (Never created an annotation before, so wish me luck) https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-jb/issues/846#issuecomment-874291942

Hi everyone We are two computer science students in the 6th semester at the Hochschule für Technik at FHNW. As a bachelor thesis we are creating a library that can be used to create desktop forms that also have the possibility to connect to the smartphone to show the user better input masks for specific fields. (For example a calculator for number fields). For the project we are using Kotlin, Compose for Desktop, and Jetpack Compose. The focus of the project is more on the library and less on the UI. But there will probably be a follow up project that will focus more on the UI. We are now at about 70% of the project and would be very happy if one or the other would like to try out our library and give us some feedback. The feedback will then be integrated into our further work. The link to the project: https://github.com/FHNW-IP5-IP6/ComposeForms Feedback by mail: steve.vogel@students.fhnw.ch / louisa.reinger@students.fhnw.ch or directly here in Slack via direct message. Thanks a lot already. Best regards Louisa Reinger & Steve Vogel
