Hello, can I get some help on why the whole "Password" word is not showing? Thanks.

How do I add elevation to a

TextField

since it doesn’t have an elevation param?

I want to remember scroll state across configuration changes within a Text with modifier

.verticalScroll(scrollState)

. •

val scrollState = rememberScrollState()

does not survive a configuration change. •

val scrollState = rememberSaveable { ScrollState(0) }

gets an exception "ScrollState@fb46372 cannot be saved using the current SaveableStateRegistry". •

val scrollState = ScrollState(0)

globally outside of any Composable works, but this is putting the scroll state outside the scope of the Composable. Is it OK to do that? Is there another way?

Hello all, can I get some help with this? Am I missing some dependencies? Thanks

Related to compose navigation. I have a dialog destination, but can't find docs on how to close the dialog, or prevent the dialog from being closed from an outside touch. Is my google-fu just bad? Edit: I suppose to close the dialog I just call popBackStack()? My question of customizing the dialog still remains though. Cheers

Question about snackbars. If I have a root level Scaffold, and each of my screens also uses a scaffold... I'm starting to think I should send all snackbars to the root level scaffold. Maybe there's no right/wrong way to do this, but I guess thinking of snackbars as like an app level notification (like a toast), then just punting to the root kinda sorta makes sense?

Is there a web page where I can see the latest version number for Compose?

Quick question on NavGraphBuilder. I tried to google and search in here, but not having luck finding an answer. Does the order that you add your composables to the graph matter or impact anything?

Hy Everyone! I'm using Coil 1.4.0 to load an image in the following example:

@Composable
fun TestScreen() {
    Column(
        modifier = Modifier
            .fillMaxSize(),
        horizontalAlignment = Alignment.CenterHorizontally
    ) {
        Image(
            painter = rememberImagePainter("<https://cdn.vox-cdn.com/uploads/chorus_image/image/47684009/Screenshot_2014-07-19_15.24.57.0.png>"),
            contentDescription = null,
            modifier = Modifier
                .fillMaxHeight(0.4f)
        )
        Button(onClick = { }) { }
    }
}

If I add a

.verticalScroll(rememberScrollState())

modifier to the

Column

the image doesn't show up anymore, only the button. What am I doing wrong or what do I miss?

Hi all, when navigating from what is the difference between

navController.navigate("nextPage") {
    popUpTo("currentPage") { inclusive = true }
}

//and 
navController.navigateUp()
navController.navigate("nextPage")

Is there a way to have some kind of zIndex working outside of a single parent or some way to handle priority for clickable when there's overlap ?

I was trying to make a keyboard avoiding TextField and found an unexpected (at least unexpected to me) behavior when I combined it with a Scaffold. I was thinking that if I scrolled the Column within the content of the Scaffold that the TopBar would stay in place but what I ended up with was the TopBar scrolls out of view which makes me think the whole Scaffold is scrolling and not just the Column that has the

verticalScroll

modifier. I put the code in this gist and will comment with my findings as I explore why this is happening.

I’ve been looking at Molecule for use with Compose. It’s intriguing the idea that’s being proposed. Effectively, it seems like it boils down to Presenter as a function. What are the benefits that this enables me to take advantage of that I didn’t have access to before? I’m curious as to peoples thoughts, and am looking for opinionated answers.

What’s the best way to make a Compose Table? If LazyColumn is the best way provided in the standard compose library, is there a 3rd party library anyone can recommend?

If I wanna use a custom font, do I need to override each and every style in this file or is there a way to change the Default font for all of them at once?

I use

compose-navigation

. I have a relatively heavy video player route which can be opened from a few other routes. Is there a way to always keep that route open in the background so it doesn't have to initialize every time? I just want to change the

videoId

used in the route every time its opened.

Not sure if a question or vent but how do you guys feel about the magic that happens with NavHost and ViewModels SavedStateHandle? This is the first time in Kotlin where I see arguments being magically passed. See screenshot. Is there an alternative method of passing down an argument to VM so I can use them in the

init

?

My designer is asking to center this vertically. It looks as though I am, but when she screenshots it and does measurements based off of the T, the T is closer to the bottom vs the top. On iOS that team was able to get them perfectly centered. (I have to admit the chips do look better on iOS) Code in thread. What am I doing wrong?

Is smart cast for nullable State fields something that could be improved in Compose? Seems like a case for https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-20294, The composition should run within a snapshot of the state system, where a field is null or not. Seems like the taskSeries should be known to be non-null.

val taskSeries by viewModel.taskSeries(taskSeriesId).collectAsState(initial = null)

    if (taskSeries != null) {
                Text(text = taskSeries.name)

Or what do people do to get around this, apart from !!

Hi Compose team, I have a documentation request. Can you add 

Thinking in Compose

 documentation similar to 

Thinking in React

 and show an entire process of building some feature using Compose? Here's the React one for reference: https://reactjs.org/docs/thinking-in-react.html I found React documentation very useful because: 1. It shows how to break your UI into several components (or Composables) 2. Identify The Minimal (but complete) Representation Of UI State 3. Explains where state should live (concept of state hoisting in Compose) 4. Explains inverse data flow There is already 

Thinking in compose

 documentation (https://developer.android.com/jetpack/compose/mental-model) out there but it explains the concepts with small examples unlike React's full-screen searchable product data table example. Thank you

What should be used to couple some composables together? If you have a text field and two buttons, and you want those to expand full ColumnRow when the screen resizes. I'm working on a Desktop application and when you resize the window, would like it still to show correctly. What I'm also looking for is to set a minimum width and height for resizing of the window.

I was trying to follow this video for my login flow. But I am facing a problem. Details in the thread.

What is the recommended way to handle common strings and dimensions? Should we store them inside .xml or should we have them as global variables?

This is probably gonna be controversial, but anyway... Am I the only one who doesn't feel comfortable with

navigation-compose

? I feel like it clashes with "thinking in compose" mindset; are there third-party alternatives?

Hey I have a noob question, I have two Composables inside a Row, and I want to align one to the left and one to the right. What's the easiest way to do this?

do these still play a role with Compose and min API 21?
