Your best bet for accurate information is insets <https github com chrisbanes accompanist tree main insets>

is it possible to know the insets padding of ime before the ime is shown so i could interpolate other animation depending on the max ime padding when the keyboard becomes visible

Have you checked out <https medium com androiddevelopers animating your keyboard reacting to inset animations 839be3d4c31b>

Adriano Celentano · Answer

thats a nice blogpost i didnt see it before But as i get its also reacting to the changing padding like the accompanist abstraction I guess what i had in mind is not possible yet Maybe one day crossed fingers

Can you go into more detail of what you want to do

cb · Answer

Sounds a bit like you re trying to implement transition

Adriano Celentano · Answer

I basically just want a float from 0 to 1 which is updating while the keyboard animates in or out keyboard completely visible would be 1 and invisible would be 0 My use case is I want to drive this animations based on the state of the keyboard animation <https twitter com SophosAdriano status 1366418357646483462 s=19|https twitter com SophosAdriano status 1366418357646483462 s=19>

Ah well the `WindowInsetsAnimation` APIs have exactly that <https developer android com reference android view WindowInsetsAnimation getFraction >

cb · Answer

You ll need to do all of wiring up yourself right now although I could expose this value in Accompanist

cb · Answer

Thinking about it I should probably expose both the animated insets the layout insets and the animated progress For this example you d only want the layout insets and the progress
