How can I have this layout like the circular box is on the top of the rectangular box but the center of circle is at the end?

What's the recommended way to deal with apha on text in material 3 that will be easier to migrate later if there's an official way ?

I have some issues with apring animations. I want to target a new random value when and one animation is finished. I do that by setting a new target in the finishedListener. When a new target is assigned, it jumps a little like it doesn’t really continues from the last target value. See code and results in the thread

For a full compose app with multiple themes, is there any solution yet to themed vector drawables, like ( android:fillColor=“?attr/colorPrimary” ). Or we still need to define xml themes ?

Hey folks, does anyone have any information on why I might be having a crash at runtime with a ModalBottomSheetLayout only on a tablet device? readout in 🧵

Thanks to all those who've developed Glance. I've made a little updating widget with it. I enjoyed making it--a stark reversal to what I dimly recall normal widget development to be like.

Hi All, so i’ve wrapped a RadioButton in a Row with some text. I then put the selectable modifier around that. I can now click anywhere in the row to select that radio button. However, when using the screenreader it initially announces it as i would like. But then if i swipe right, it’s individually selecting the radio button which i don’t want. Is there any way to disable that? (code in thread)

If I have a scrollable row of cards with elevation, and I overscroll I get clipping of the elevation/shadow. Is there a way to prevent that? Bug or intended?

Hi all! I'm showing an

Alert Dialog

when I enter an invalid email address, as I click on Continue button the keyboard is dismissed and

Alert Dialog

is also displayed, but the position of the

Alert Dialog

starts above the center of the screen and moves to the Center as the keyboard is sliding down to be dismissed. How can I always position it to center?

Is there any plan to allow

@Preview

and

PreviewParameterProvider

classes to be private? Right now I have for example a class which has one public composable meant to be used by other files and a bunch of private ones, but then what I really expose to the other files is this [picture attached]. Now this is polluting the auto-completion menu in a way that is very bad, as I absolutely never want to call those from other files, or call them in general to be exact.

Any idea how to debug Compose being busy in UI testing context? I’m getting busy timeout failure and have no idea why.

Hey, do I need to add a rule on proguard to enable WEBP with Compose? On debug I have zero crash but on release I do:

Only VectorDrawables and rasterized asset types are supported ex. PNG, JPG

Here is my code: (the drawable is a .webp)

Image(
        painter = painterResource(R.drawable.bg_video),
        contentDescription = null,
        modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize()
    )

Does anyone know how to get the screen reader (ie. talkback) to recognize state change and re-announce something? I have an InputText field which has a validation state. It’s up to the caller how and when to validate (on button click, as you type, whatever). But when this state changes i would like that to be somehow announced.

Hello folks, I am using

SwipeToDismiss

within a

LazyColumn

and facing an issue where the nestedScroll doesn’t work.

SwipeToDismiss

seems to consume the scrolling event without giving the parent (

LazyColumn

) a chance to consume the event. Removing the

SwipeToDismiss

fixes the issue. Basically the problem is described by someone else here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70570319/swipetodismiss-nestedscroll-does-not-work-well-together-jetpack-compose For what it’s worth, I am using this gist https://gist.github.com/chrisbanes/053189c31302269656c1979edf418310 for enabling interoperability with the view system. Works fine without the

SwipeToDismiss

. I am trying to understand if this is a bug or I am missing anything.

I keep getting "This class can only be used with the compiler argument '-opt-in=kotlin.RequiresOptIn'" when building. I see that this can be fixed with

tasks.withType<org.jetbrains.kotlin.gradle.tasks.KotlinCompile> {
  kotlinOptions {
    freeCompilerArgs += "-Xopt-in=kotlin.RequiresOptIn"
  }
}

which I added to my root build.gradle, but I still get the warning. Should I just not care or should I just remove it completely?

The

completionHandler

for

suspend

functions only excepts an

Error

, but on the Kotlin side I want to catch a specific exception type e.g.

MyException

. How do I pass

MyException

to the

completionHandler

?

Is there a known issue regarding AndroidView and UI Testing using createAndroidComposeRule?. When I try to launch the test with AndroidView on a screen test runs infinitely and it is never complete, however, after removing AndroidView test runs fine.

I'm looking for opinions on an architectural decision for a brand new project I'm starting, with probably around 20 different screens for the user to go to I need to decide between the following: 1. Single activity, many Composables 2. Single activity, one fragment per "screen", many Composables 3. Many activities, no fragments, many Composables I'm leaning toward option 3, but I'm wondering if option 3 will make it hard to have shared element transitions between different Activities? all opinions welcome 🙏

Hey everyone! First time posting but wanted to share this little project I was working on for fun to create an alternative to the nav component for compose, first time I publish anything so feel free to bombard me with suggestions and criticism 😊 I just wanted a solution that doesn't use pre-declared destinations (nav component, plus missing features like animations) and didn't require code-gen and dependency on accompanist (compose-destinations). And if this isn't the right place to share lemme know ^^ https://github.com/roudikk/compose-navigator

Hey everyone 🙂 How would you implement it with Compose? I'm trying to go custom but I'm having problems with the bar under the text

Hi! I'd like to know if I'm incurring an anti-pattern. Let's say I need to display the same composable (a

TextSnackBar

which shows a pop-up message over the screen and then disappears) over different screens. There's a

TextSnackBarState

that exports the method

display(message: String)

. I don't know which approach I should embrace: (see thread)

I’m confuse the use of

SideEffect

. I cannot create a case of to differentiate it’s use and without it’s use as per https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70720751/whats-the-different-using-sideeffect-and-not-using-it-in-jetpackcompose. Can someone enlighten? Thank you 🙏

Hi guys, how can I add

stickyHeader

in

LazyVerticalGrid

?

Is it safe to publish a library which depends Compose (foundation, etc.) and Compose compiler of different versions? E.g. Compose

1.0.5

and compiler

1.1.0-rc02

. I want to finally update Kotlin to 1.6.10. Wondering if there any compatibility concerns I should be aware of.

What would be a good way to determine the final position of an element that is mid transition? I'm working on shared elements for my lib and currently this is the only thing that's missing. If you have 2 screens being animated, the shared transition element needs to animate between the initial pos from first screen (which is fine) but the final pos of the element of the 2nd screen which keeps changing (using

onGloballyPositioned

and I can denounce by a bit till it stops changing but that will delay the transition animation of the shared element itself which is not the expected behaviour. So basically is there a way to know if the position of a composable is not final and what would be its final position or would I have to know the transition and based on the animation properties calculate the final position of the element? Or am I going the wrong direction anyway haha

Latest Skia on Android? According to recent activities in the Skiko project (https://github.com/JetBrains/skiko/pull/451) I am wondering whether Jetbrains is planning to bundle the Skia library with all platforms which are supported by Compose. Am I just dreaming or would that mean that we could finally have the same native canvas based on Skia on all platforms including Android? One Graphics API, with all the latest features, to rule them all even on older devices? This would really solve a problem which I had recently. Keeping my fingers and toes crossed that this is not just a misinterpretation or a day dream 😆

I suspect this has been asked, not finding right away. If I have

Column
  Row { Text(); Text() }
  Row { Text(); Text() }

can I somehow make it so that it renders like this:

text1:       hello
text2longer: world

especially if

Row

is some component defined in the different file. I tried to read about alignment lines, but can't see how they could help achieve this here.

I want to implement Map in compose. Can anyone help me? How to implement it with LocationService.

If I swipe a

Button

(Material 2 or 3) I get a ripple but no

onClick

-- is that working as designed? (Unfortunately, button presses from my thumb when working one-handed tend to be swipes. )
