03/30/2024, 6:42 PMThe newest APIs expose a ScrollState as a parameter https://cs.android.com/androidx/platform/frameworks/support/+/androidx-main:compose/[…]=BasicTextField&ss=androidx%2Fplatform%2Fframeworks%2Fsupport so you can pass in your own remembered ScrollState and derive from it what the scroll situation is like.
This may not be present in the latest stable releases though, I think this only started being a thing when BasicTextField2 was renamed to just BasicTextField

If there’s something which you think should work but doesn’t just file an issue is what I’d suggest. Can’t say I’ve done something similar myself to have a better idea here.
thank you color 1

04/02/2024, 2:22 PMHave you tried the new BTF APIs Victoria? Does that not fill your requirements here?
