We’re implementing a custom Switch component, and noticed that we have to do some math with the SwipeableState.offset when the layout direction is Rtl to draw the thumb on the right side. The gesture direction is correct though. Should SwipeableState.offset return inverted values in Rtl mode? If so, I can file a bug.

A toggle like one of these?

[Zach Klippenstein (he/him) [MOD]]

no, like a switch. I updated my original message to be more clear

[Adam Powell]

localizing bidi is surprisingly nuanced. We initially had Placeable.place work the way you're describing but shifted to having the mirroring placeRelative not be the default instead

[Adam Powell]

should be like a 4-liner with Modifier.layout using placeRelative though

Yea it’s very easy to get the correct behavior we’re looking for inside a DrawScope too, even without a placeRelative equivalent. I’m very satisfied with the answer “no, swipeable state does the right thing,” I just wanted to check. Thanks!
