I'm getting weird shadow for dark theme, any ideas?

Column(modifier = Modifier.padding(16.dp)) {
        Surface(
            elevation = 10.dp,
            modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth(),
        ) {
            Text(text = "Test")
        }
    }

the shadow I think is a natural consequence of using elevation!

I know, I want shadow 🙂

What do you mean by ‘shadow’, do you mean the elevation overlay? https://material.io/design/color/dark-theme.html#properties Check the elevation section

no, not the surface overlay (tough I'd prefer to avoid it, not sure how yet)

You can use

LocalElevationOverlay

, and provide

null

not that I'm aware of
