How can I detect if software keyboard is visible in the screen or not?

I believe there is a
```TextField(
    ...
    onTextInputStarted: (SoftwareKeyboardController) -&gt; Unit = {},
    ...
)```
which you could use.

Android developers have been trying to solve this problem for 10 years :grin:

there is also the `TextInputServiceAmbient` which I believe you could use. If I am correct. (Maybe not :thinking_face: )

Thank you folks. I need to learn Ambient. Currently I don’t know how Ambient works.

You could look at Ambient Docs here:

Though I'm thinking about your problem. If you want to listen everytime, the soft keyboard show up. `TextInputService` might not solve it. As `TextInputService` only have method to control the text Input. hmmm... I hope someone from the Compose team notices your question. :thinking_face:

I want to change my layout whenever there is a Soft Keyboard visible in the screen. `adjustPan` does not work as expected. so I am thinking manually changing the layout. I have seen an example in the Jetsurvey app. But I have multiple `TextInput` in my screen.
