Is there any context as to why BasicSecureTextField doesn't expose scroll state like BasicTextField does?

if there was i don't remember what it was 😅 can you file a FR too?

[andrew]

I can 🙂

[andrew]

For context, I'm trying to fade the scroll edges of text inputs to remove the harsh clipping

Is there a specific component I should file under?

[andrew]

Android Public Tracker > App Development > Jetpack (androidx) > Jetpack Compose > UI Libraries > Foundation I'm guessing?

as long as it's something with compose they'll triage it for you

[andrew]

Sounds good, going to get to filing it

Can you use the method that exposes state: TextFieldState, then manipulate the scroll through its state?

[Seri]

Ah my mistake, TextFieldState exposes the selection state, rather than the scroll state

[andrew]

Yeah, I was about to mention 😅

[andrew]

Would be great news for me otherwise lol
