I noticed that if I started a click and then i mouse over a composable with either hoverable() or .onPointerEvent(PointerEventType.Enter/Exit) the event is never triggered.

Is this a bug or intended? How can i get hovered events for where the pointer is in such case?

val interactionSource = remember { MutableInteractionSource() }
    val hovered by interactionSource.collectIsHoveredAsState()

    Row(Modifier.fillMaxSize()) {
        Box(Modifier.weight(1f).fillMaxHeight())
        Box(
            modifier = Modifier.weight(1f).fillMaxHeight().background(Color.LightGray).hoverable(interactionSource),
            contentAlignment = Alignment.Center
        ) {
            Text("Hovered? = ${hovered}")
        }
    }

Try using pointer input Modifier instead

interesting. wasn't aware that the typical way of events being handled
