How can I animate a checkbox when the

checked

value changes (not from the

onCheckedChange

callback) - a touch form outside the Checkbox bounds (like a “check all”)

are you passing the

checked

as a parameter of your composable?

Yes

so you already have the behavior and you want the animation

Correct 🙂

Have you looked how is the animation triggered inside of checkbox?

with a

rememberRipple

? 😄

I haven't looked into it myself but your answer is in there

I can apply the ripple where the user clicks with a

clickable

, but I don’t see how I can trigger it from the outside of the

CheckBox

function

if you can't manipulate the default checkbox to behave that way you could copy it and customize it yourself

If I’m asking here, perhaps it’s because we already agreed to try that solution 🙂

I would try a custom checkbox then

So it’s not doable with what the SDK is giving us, is that what you’re saying?

the default behavior is change state without animation and animation upon interaction

"How can I animate a checkbox..." which animation are you looking for? Do you want the same as if they had touched and gotten a ripple? I note that the ripple actually only happens if you do a prolonged click on it. If i tap super fast on them (at least the M3 ones), they just snap to the other state with no ripple. There may be a fast fade there, hard for my eyes to catch it.

Yes, the ripple animation is what I was looking for
