Is there a reason Modifier.onClick is still experimental? It's one of the most basic modifiers I use everywhere.

[Sean Proctor]

I think Modifier.clickable is the stable interface unless you're doing something that specifically needs Modifier.onClick.

[Marcin Wisniowski]

Modifier.clickable does the extra Material Design ripple / other indication, that I don't need in a desktop app. I just want a click handler.

[Sean Proctor]

I don't know your use case. You can disable the indication if that's the issue. I don't know if you want the other stuff like hover, focus, etc

[Sean Proctor]

You could also make your own extension and call Modifier.onClick from there. If the API changes, you only have one place to update.

[Marcin Wisniowski]

You can disable the indication if that's the issue.

I assumes that's what onClick is for - a clickable for when you don't want indications.

[Sean Proctor]

Consider using clickable if it's necessary to handle only primary clicks. Unlike clickable, onClick doesn't add Modifier. indication, Modifier. hoverable, Modifier. focusable, click by Enter key, etc. If necessary, one has to add those manually when using onClick.

I think onClick is for the cases where you need to handle other click types.

Dear all, unfortunately the Modifier.clickable is not triggered but Modifier.OnFocus is working.
