# compose

before Compose I use to hide keyboard when user started scrolling so that they can see more rows of the recyclerView this was the code I was using.

recyclerView!!.setOnTouchListener { v, event ->
    val imm = requireActivity().getSystemService(Context.INPUT_METHOD_SERVICE) as InputMethodManager
    imm.hideSoftInputFromWindow(v.windowToken, 0)

    false
}

was it the preferred way to to this now with compose?
I have already considered using isScrollInProgress of LazyListState but I think this may not be suitable for this use-case.

Why do you think so?

if I put that inside a if clause it will get called with every recomposition

[Albert Chang]

That's why you should use effects:

val keyboardController = LocalSoftwareKeyboardController.current
LaunchedEffect(listState.isScrollInProgress) {
    if (listState.isScrollInProgress) keyboardController?.hide()
}

That worked! Thanks
