I am trying to intercept clicks on a text to change the text colors. Both click and color work as expected.
However, because of this interception, talkback a11y doesn't focus on the text anymore. Doesn't anyone know what could be wrong with this approach?

var isTextPressed by remember { mutableStateOf(false) }
Text(
    modifier = Modifier
        .pointerInput(Unit) {
            detectTapGestures(
                onPress = {
                    isTextPressed = true
                    if (tryAwaitRelease()) {
                        isTextPressed = false
                    }
                },
                onTap = {
                    onClick.invoke()
                }
            )
        }
    ...
    ...
)

@Utkarsh Tiwari i’m having the same issue. Have you find a fix?

[Utkarsh Tiwari]

Give this a try:

val interactionSource = remember { MutableInteractionSource() }
val isPressed by interactionSource.collectIsPressedAsState()
val interactionModifier =
    Modifier
        .clickable(
            interactionSource,
            indication = rememberRipple(color = Color.Blue),
            enabled = enabled
        ) { onClick() }

And apply the interactionModifier to your target composable

Unfortunately i need pointerInput to detect zoom and pan on an image

My only issue is with talkback and have no idea how to make it work again with the image

@Utkarsh Tiwari Maybe you have to wrap the modifier into composed { } .
