I have a LazyColumn with a lot of items in a composeDesktop:

LazyColumn {
    items(busStops) { busStop ->
        BusStopItem(busStop)
    }
}

How can we make vertical scroll visible so the user can drag it with the mouse to the desired position?

There is a search engine out there called Google - really helpful for such questions 😉

@Chrimaeon hehe, I did the search before posting here, even asked chatgpt, but I only could find that the scrollbar should appear automatically, and gave how to manually show it, but not this scroll bar, but the embedded one

[Pablo]

I ensure you that I always search before asking things, always

The documentation is not good enough, because with java views and android it was a much more easier learning curve

[Pablo]

with much better documentation in my opinion

[Pablo]

than with compose/multiplatform/compose desktop/flows

[Pablo]

I'm having a lot of issues and I'm grateful I can find help from you guys here, because documentation or stackoverflow questions are not enough

[Pablo]

for example, now I'm with a compose desktop project, and was literally a nightmare make it compile with Room and Koin, and finally I can display data from retrofit and store it and show with the Room database, but literally a nightmare to configure and make it work

[Pablo]

specially on KMP and multiplatform, documentation it's in a very starting point

[Pablo]

but I'm finding issues with everything related with the new compose and declarative world

[Pablo]

on the other hand I'm not gonna surrender, I know I will achieve the same skill level than with android old view system and java, just need time and effort to achieve it

You mean a scrollbar? https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform/blob/master/tutorials/Desktop_Components/README.md#lazy-scrollable-components-with-scrollbar

[Chrimaeon]

Looks like none. Sorry, I haven’t looked at your link before replying.
