Hi, the

combine

operator only emits once every flow has an emission. in my case i want to combine flows and it might that one flow would not emit at all - in that case i want to have the transformation receive a null value for not yet existing values of those streams.

combineAlways(flow1, flow2) { v1, v2 (null as not yet an emission) ->
...
}

is there a way to achieve that?

Is there a way to observe the state of

MutableState

in the

init

function of

ViewModel

Hi did someone work with spotless. I'm not sure if I should go with spotless or detekt (both have ktlint integrated, while spotless has also ktfmt and diktat on board). Can someone give me an advice?

Im trying to create a text field with a drop down menu for most common inputs so the user can enter the input manually in the text field or simply click one of the options from the dropdown menu to enter it into the text field, i found the ExposedDropdownMenuBox composable in the docs and it seems like a good solution for what i need but when i try to run my app i can't type anything in the textfield when the menu is visible (even tho the text field has focus and i can see the blinking indicator) and i have to click the text field again to hide the menu and only then i can start typing in the text field, but not when the menu is visible. does anyone know a way to allow typing while the menu is visible?

Anyone know how to select all the text in a text field, when it gets focus? I've tried using

TextFieldValue.selection

and changing it in

Modifier.onFocusChanged

but no luck so far.

Having a problem getting ktlint to read overrides in .editorconfig; this setup:

root = true

[*.{kt,kts}]
charset = utf-8
end_of_line = lf
ktlint_code_style = ktlint_official

[dsl/*.{kt,kts}]
ktlint_standard_filename = disabled
ktlint_standard_max-line-length = disabled

…fails to disable the two rules in the second stanza. Moving those rules to the first stanza works. Running 0.50.0 via ktlint-gradle v11.5.0 Have tried variations on the syntax such as

dsl/**.{kt,kts}

without luck.

Is Material Design 3 available for compose for desktop? I added the dependency to my build.gradle.kts and had a successful sync, but still get components from M2 instead of M3

Hey everyone! do we have an 'ignoring' assertion which works on Collections? I want to compare two lists, ignoring the id of their content. Imagine:

data class Person (val id: String, val name: String)

I expect sth like the following:

listOf(Person("0", "Tom")).shouldBeEqualToIgnoringFields(listOf(Person("1", "Tom")), Person::id)

do we have this? 🙏
