Is it possible to have a screen that is floating over other screens, kinda like a Full Screen Dialog? I'm not looking for a modification of a

Dialog

but something more low level, simply a screen that overlays another screen

You don’t need a route to have a dialog. You can simply take a normal approach of defining some remembered state:

val (showDialog, onShowDialogChanged) = remember { mutableStateOf(false) }

Thanks but I'm not asking for how to create a dialog. I want a screen that overlays like a dialog does but dont want a dialog. I'm looking for a lower level component

How about adding a new Window just like how Dialog does it?

There are two ways to do this, depending on what you need: 1. At the root of your composition use a

Box

to overlay your modal content over the other content . 1. Use the

Popup

composable . It uses a different window, like

Dialog

, but without all the styling implications of

Dialog

.

@Allan @Zach Klippenstein (he/him) [MOD] Thanks guys. I'm interested in adding a new

Window

so

Dialog

or

Popup

would be suitable...but. I have a problem with the misleading intention (a

Popup

is a

Popup

, not a screen). So if I don't want to go with

Popup

or

Dialog

I would have to compose my own "FullScreen" component by leveraging the underlying

Dialog/Popup

logic (i.e. adding a new Window), right?

You should be able to make a

Popup

take up the whole screen if you want. If you want to wrap that in your own composable to enforce styling or api requirements, go ahead.
