I have a weird issue with manual scroll invoking.

LazyListState.animateScrollToItem(0)

suspends indefinitely whenever I intercept the scroll animation by touching the list. Thus blocking the collection for any consecutive animations. Tried working around with

withTimeout

, but it seems like the

animateScrollToItem

animation loop has no way of supporting cancellation (no

yield

in the

while

loop).

Just a wild guess, are you by any chance catching generic exceptions? In other words, is there a chance you accidentally catch

CancellationException

and don't rethrow it? 🤔

It's not that, there's a SharedFlow with collect and inside this collection there's just animateSceollToItem, no exception handling at all

And isn't the problem that you are calling it inside

SharedFlow

collector? If you intercept the scroll animation, the

animateScrollToItem

throws

CancellationException

and the

SharedFlow

collector will be cancelled, meaning that no other emit will be collected. So maybe it's not that it suspends forever but that there is no collector and you will not receive any value. I am not 100% sure. Just throwing ideas.

Hmm, this might be the case. I don't think I've seen any cancellation there but I light have missed it. So wrapping it in supervisorscope there would work. Or catching cancellation exception. Nice idea
