< Doris Liu> looks awesome I was one of the people who said that expand collapse was at the top of my compose wishlist I haven t used compose yet but I have two more questions 1 Typically when my designer gives me an expand collapse design like this they also give me a down arrow V that should animate to an up arrow ^ Is there an easy way to do this with AnimatedVisibility 2 Typically when you re at the bottom of a list lets say you have an FAQ or something And each time you click a Question you get a paragraph of an answer If I use ANimatedVisibility if you open the last question will it scroll down to show you the answer If not maybe thats a good feature request I get this all the time from my PM and designers because they click the last item and I animate my arrow but you can t actually tell that something opened below it

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

1 seems like a good use case for the transition animation API not this

Doris Liu · Answer

< Colton Idle> Yes to question 1 the expanding collapsing is supported out of the box along with fading and sliding

Doris Liu · Answer

2 is a great feature request for list We should make it easy to wire up slightly smiling face

Doris Liu · Answer

`AnimatedVisibility` animates the content in while reporting an animated size in between size 0 to full size to its parent if you position the to be expanded content right below where the down arrow is you should get the expanding collapsing behavior for free

< Colton Idle> I had no idea this was on the top of your wishlist smile Curious what are the other things on your compose wishlist

< Zach Klippenstein he him MOD > I can t wait for you to give `AnimatedVisibilty` a try smile

Colton Idle · Answer

< Doris Liu> my wishlist isn t all that long but I do have a number two Number one was admittedly this Number 2 is text bounding box spacing i e In the current UI toolkit even if you stack 3 textviews on top of each other or horizontally and you dont want padding because this is what your designer gave you the text views bounding boxes touch in the design but at runtime they don t because of font padding Even when you disable fontPadding then you still have spacing gaps which makes it super tricky to match exactly what design gave you Maybe that s just me though but I swear that even with fontPadding = false in xml I still can t sometimes get my text to actually line up with each other the way my designer wants and I sometimes have had to resort to negative margin etc

Doris Liu · Answer

Looping in < Siyamed> for the text feature request
