Are there any plans to implement

textOverflow

(as well as the remaining parameters) from

androidx.compose.material.Text

to Glance

Text

fields?

Hello everyone,can we access local data using room library? If we can how can i do?What is the correct way creating database instance and using this instance?If we can't what do you recommend me for accessing local data?

Hello, anyone here know if there is possibility to update the widget from

Worker

using

updateAppWidgetState

? I have tried to use it in Worker, but the update function need to be used from GlanceWidget class or I have to pass the

GlanceStateDefinition

. So the question is, can I create the State Definition inside my worker? If not, what is the way to update the widget from

Worker

? I found that passing my state in constructor of MyGlanceWidget works, but then I am not using widgetState at all.

I make a call http request and update widget but i get error after i did update widget .UI updated but then give an error.I share to my error for your better understanding.

Hey 🤔 Do y'all know if it's possible to have a single

GlanceStateDefinition

shared across multiple instances of the same widget?

I have a problem with passing parameters in action

actionStartActivity

. The click parameter is assign during composition and I cannot use hte dynamic state as I can for ActionCallback. Rephrasing: Is there a way to start activity but using class

ActionCallback

? This class is called on click, not during composition, so i can get my parameters base on glanceID. @Marcel Pinto?

Hi, we have implemented a widget with Glance that uses

actionRunCalback

with an action that uses a deeplink to open the app. We're doing this because our Glance widget is in a different module than our

MainActivity

and then to avoid

CircularDependencyException

. However, we're seeing a rather strange error from Crashlytics saying

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: List adapter activity trampoline invoked without specifying target intent.

. I saw that there was a check in

ActionTrampoline.kt

that could throw this. Has anyone else seen this before? 😄 Stacktrace in thread 🧵

I had a talk about Glance Widget today at droidcon Lisbon. Here is the demo application: https://github.com/PiotrPrus/WeatherGlanceWidget The widget present temperature and wind from choosen location, updating manually or every 15 minues using WorkManager.

Hi! Is it possible to do the following in Glance composables? • add elevation (e.g. in a Row)? Like you can in a LinearLayout? • tint a drawable

Is there anyway to use

ViewFlipper

in glance?

Also, is there a recommended way to load a bunch of images remotely in a lazy column?

Can I call a Glance Composable within a regular Composable? I want to have a live preview of my widget within the configuration screen so a user could see what it will look like based on settings they change (like the attached screenshot from Weather Timeline)

Override the sizeMode variable inside GlanceAppWidget and use the sizeMode Exact. Every time the available size changes the Content fun will be called and the available size will be provided via LocalSize

How would I go about getting ripple effects for icons that implement the clickable modifier? Or even some kind of response to a button/icon being clicked?

FYI new samples for Glance are available now in GitHub 🙂 https://github.com/android/user-interface-samples/tree/main/AppWidget https://twitter.com/marxallski/status/1542878189998944256

Hello everyone. Anyone here got an idea why I can't launch this PendingIntent for Compose Navigation deeplinking from my Glance widget. I get

android.app.PendingIntent$CanceledException

when I execute the action. PendingIntent code

internal fun openDeepLinkPendingIntent(context: Context, uriString: String): PendingIntent? {
    val intent = Intent(
        Intent.ACTION_VIEW,
        uriString.toUri()
    )
    return TaskStackBuilder.create(context).run {
        addNextIntentWithParentStack(intent)
        getPendingIntent(0, PendingIntent.FLAG_UPDATE_CURRENT or PendingIntent.FLAG_IMMUTABLE)
    }
}

My ActionCallback:

class OpenTaskDetailsAction : ActionCallback {
    override suspend fun onRun(context: Context, glanceId: GlanceId, parameters: ActionParameters) {
        val taskId = parameters[PendingTasksWidgetParamKeys.TASK_ID_KEY]
        taskId?.let {
            val pendingIntent = openDeepLinkPendingIntent(context, it)
            println("Pending Intent is present: $pendingIntent")
            pendingIntent?.send()
        }
    }
}

For the record https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/239549285

java.lang.IllegalStateException: No child for position 5 and size Wrap x Expand

Is there an easy way to figure out what is wrong with my composables when I get this error? What does the position stand for? It happens when I use

defaultWeight

GlanceModifier.

Could you paste the full stacktrace?

Hi. There is an issue with the latest version alpha 04 While compiling the app for release it throws an error saying

Task android:minifyReleaseWithR8 FAILED

Execution failed for task ‘android:minifyReleaseWithR8’.

com.android.tools.r8.CompilationFailedException: Compilation failed to complete, position: offset: 932, line: 22, column: 7, origin: /Users/rustam/.gradle/caches/transforms-3/5bd4f57de5d0b1b3ad27e41d1f34fee0/transformed/glance-appwidget-1.0.0-alpha04/proguard.txt

It's linked 2 lines above I give a workaround in the issue.

📣 Yesterday we release a new open source library for Glance to experiment with some useful tools https://github.com/google/glance-experimental-tools In a nutshell it uses compose to host RemoteViews (generated from a Glance-appwidget) and enable Android Studio tools like Live Edit. Looking forward for your feedback! https://twitter.com/AndroidDev/status/1565418868344066058

Morning. I've been reading the docs to no avail. Does anyone know if there's a callback or if it's possible to detect when a Column becomes visible within a LazyColumn? I'm hoping to detect when the list scrolls and an item appears on the screen.

’Morning, has something changed about

actionStartActivity

on alpha04? I had a simple

val intent = packageManager.getLaunchIntentForPackage(package)!!
GlanceModifier.clickable(actionStartActivity(intent))

on alpha03, but after the update, clicking of the item has no effect

Starting again to play with Glance with alpha5 but I'm facing a strange issue and have no idea where to start looking. It seems there's a race internally And when calling

AGlanceWidget().updateAll(it)
BGlanceWidget().updateAll(it)

Then something the wrong widget content is rendered (Like A is rendered in B widget)

^Speaking of alpha05, I haven't had a chance to try it out yet but I read the release notes. Does anyone happen to know if this fixed issue is included in alpha05?

Seems there's still no way to tint images via ColorProviders to support day/night changes properly?

Trying to backport image rounding in the widgets to all API versions, and while there's plenty of methods I can't find how to port a RoundedCorner of x dp to the equivalent in path or roundedrect in canvas. Is there something obvious I'm missing?

Is there a limit of 10 children inside a

Column

or

Row

in Glance? I get a

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Cannot find container Row with 11 children

error once I try to add the 11th children.. 🤔
