Question

Does anyone have a Text like component that is capable of handling links urls inside I have `AnnotatedString` with some url annotations and I m struggling to make it working properly with hover interactions I want like in a browser to highlight links when they are hovered and change pointer icon to hand It causes infinite recomposition because when I handle enter move pointer event the `AnnotatedString` is changed to highlight hovered part of the text with url which causes recomposition of `BasicText` and then `onTextLayout` yields different `TextLayoutResult` because input changed particularly span styles which causes remembered mutable state to be modified which triggers more changes and causes recomposition again ad infinum Also it seems recomposition causes synthentic `PointerEventType Exit` to be sent which causes un hover path to be triggered I just can t find how to get it all together Any ideas maybe

This seems to work for me

Ah I m highlighting on the wrong event

Alexander Maryanovsky · Answer

Changing the remembered `TextLayoutResult` here doesn t cause recomposition because it s only read in `onPointerEvent`

< Alexander Maryanovsky> I m doing pretty much the same but maybe I ve did something wrong I ll try your variant when I get back to that code Thanks

orangy · Answer

Your variant is working The only difference that was significant is this My modifier ``` then if hoverRange = null Modifier pointerHoverIcon PointerIconDefaults Hand overrideDescendants = true else Modifier ``` Your modifier ``` pointerHoverIcon if hoverRange = null PointerIconDefaults Hand else PointerIconDefaults Default overrideDescendants = true ``` I was using no modifier in case of not hovered because text may or may not be wrapped into SelectionContainer and thus no hover cursor would be different Now I wonder why is that

orangy · Answer

Duh in `SelectionContainer` click is not working because it is probably intercepted by selection handling code
