Hello Kotlinlang!

Im having issues in Compose multiplatform to display a toast on top of a modalBottomSheet. I've tried messing with z-indexes without any success. Im using Scaffold to display the toasts thru the snackbarhost.
Both the Scaffold and the ModalBottomSheet are from material3.

Has anyone stumbled upon a similar problem? Any suggestions or solutions?

Are you triggering the toast from the bottom sheet or from some view behind? I think because the bottomsheet is in a different window, the z index doesn't work in this case. 🤔

Recently I had the same issue and what I had to do was to trigger it from the bottomsheet instead of the view behind it

Ran into the same issue, resolved it the same way as Tiago, the snackbar has to be called from the bottom sheet itself

# Usage:
ModalBottomSheet(
    <...>
    snackbarHostState = snackbarHostState,
) {...}

# ModalBottomSheet.kt
@Composable
fun ModalBottomSheet(
    snackbarHostState: SnackbarHostState = rememberSnackbarHostState(),
    content: @Composable ColumnScope.() -> Unit,
    <...>
) {
        MaterialModalBottomSheet(
            <...>
        ) {
            Box {
                Column(modifier = Modifier.padding(contentPadding)) {
                    content()
                    Spacer(Modifier.windowInsetsBottomHeight(WindowInsets.navigationBars))
                }
                SnackbarHost(
                    snackbarHostState = snackbarHostState,
                    modifier =
                        Modifier
                            .align(Alignment.BottomCenter)
                            .navigationBarsPadding()
                            .padding(...),
                ) { snackbarVisuals ->
                    Snackbar(snackbarVisuals)
                }
            }
        }
    }
}

Hmm interesting! Thanks a lot for the answers yall ❤️

However this toast that im trying to present can occur whenever really in that specific view. So I don't know if a bottomsheet is presented or not. Kinda looking for a more dynamic solution...

[Ernestas]

You could potentially reuse the same snackbar state for screen/bottom sheet level composables (basically duplicating the snackbar) so that it handles both cases. If you find a better solution please share 😄

[Calle Höglund]

Yeah that was my thought too. It did work but the toast is duplicated, since the host is shared in two composables

Small update. Using a BottomSheetScaffold solved the problem with the Toast not showing up (drawn on top of bottom sheet when showing). However using it comes with a few drawbacks.
• No way of setting a scrimColor (the dimmed view behind a visible bottomsheet)
• No support to dismissed the sheet with a tap outside of it (solvable with pointerInput hack)
