Hi, I want to keep track of the cursor position in a

BasicTextField

. Everything works fine except, when I tap/click somewhere inside the TextField text, it (for sure) changes the position of the cursor, but as no text change or layout change is happening to the TextField content, I cannot update my cursor position. I have TextLayoutResult as a remembered state to get the new cursor rect via

TextLayoutResult.getCursorRect(textFieldValue.selection.end.coerceAtMost(layoutInput.text.length))

how can I get the cursor rect when I change it via "just clicking somewhere else" inside the TextFields text?

Use the

TextFieldValue

overload to get the position of the cursor, then use the layout result to calculate its coordinates

hmmm, could you elaborate a bit more, please? Not totally clear what you mean. (a) if I "click" somewhere in the text, NO .clickable(...) or .onClick() neither .pointerInput(Unit) { ... } will be called. (b) IF I somehow manage to get a click "recognized", how can I get the cursor rect out of the

TextFieldValue

???

If you want to track any time the cursor changes, use

TextFieldValue

and observe it for selection changes. If you specifically only want to track clicks, then use

TextFieldValue

and a pointerInput gesture to peek at pointer events.
