I have a half-transparent Box with `Modifier.fillM...

I have a half-transparent Box with Modifier.fillMaxSize() as overlay on top of the screen, but I see that the Buttons underneath are still clickable. How can I "catch" the click events in the Box and not let them be propagated to items underneath?

Make the Box clickable. Just remember to change the interactionSource so that it doesn't look like you are clicking

Thank you!

Notice what Surface does https://cs.android.com/androidx/platform/frameworks/support/+/androidx-main:compose/material3/material3/src/commonMain/kotlin/androidx/compose/material3/Surface.kt;l=126?q=Material3.Surface which is mentioned in point #5 in the docs above it.
You probably want to do that same instead of clickable. Looks a bit more lightweight and I am guessing it is internally too.

[Lukasz Kalnik]

Thanks, that looks indeed more concise.

However somehow the clicks are still going through the Box... I have a bit complex Composable setup, I will try to create a minimal reproducer.

[Stylianos Gakis]

Yeah, if surface itself works this way, I can't imagine this not being the way to go.

fun Modifier.disableClicks() = composed {
  this.clickable(
    interactionSource = remember { MutableInteractionSource() },
    indication = null,
    onClick = {}
  )
}
