Given a click from a button I open a dialog with a TextField, the textfield has singleLine=true and defined onDone KeyboardOption and KeyboardAction.

If I use keyboard to navigate to the dialog and the textfield enter some text and press enter to finish, it will not consume the enter-key. It will call the onDone, but also about 50ms later call onClick on the button that opened the Dialog causing it to reappear 🤯. I've tried achieve a fix by consuming the enter with onKeyEvent , onPreviewKeyEvent and onPreInterceptKeyBeforeSoftkeyboard but even though i return true and consume the press a onClick will happen on the button behind the open dialog. Any other idea how this can be prevented? Right now the only solution I've found that works is to add a delay of 50ms to before actually closing the dialog. 💩 Pressing enter on a button to close the dialog instead of enter using onDone works fine.

For now I've made an issue on the google's tracker with a snippet on how to reproduce it: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/305518328

Got me thinking, literally did this now:

// Submit button's interactionSource                            val interactionSource: MutableInteractionSource = remember { MutableInteractionSource() }

// TextField
...
onDone = {
    val press = PressInteraction.Press(Offset.Zero)
    interactionSource.tryEmit(press)  interactionSource.tryEmit(PressInteraction.Release(press))
},
...

Workaround, but I hate it 🙃
