AndroidView
doesn’t support
contentDescription
? 🤔

If you need to set a
contentDescription
for an Android view within a Compose layout (for example, for a view created with
AndroidView
), you would typically do this: 1. Set
contentDescription
in the Traditional View: When creating or configuring the view that you’re passing to
AndroidView
, set its
contentDescription
as you normally would in a traditional Android view setting. 2. Use Modifier.semantics for Compose Elements: For composable elements, use the
Modifier.semantics
block to set properties like
contentDescription
. For example:
Copy code
AndroidView(
    factory = { context ->
        // Create and configure your traditional view here
        TextView(context).apply {
            text = "Example TextView"
            contentDescription = "This is a TextView"
        }
    },
    // Additional configuration if needed
)
In this example,
contentDescription
is set on the
TextView
, not directly on
AndroidView
. For fully Compose-based UI elements, you would use Compose’s accessibility modifiers.

Got it.
