Why neither onPress nor onTap getting triggered on Button? 🤔 🧵

[theapache64]

Button(
    modifier = Modifier
        .pointerInput(Unit) {
            detectTapGestures(
                onPress = {
                    println("Pressed")
                },
                onTap = {
                    println("Tapped")
                }
            )
        },
    onClick = {}
) {
    Text("Hello")
}

I need to get the clicked offset to do my business logic, but its not getting triggered.

I think the button is already capturing that event before you can.

Confirmed. You are right.

So what was your solution? Thanks!

@Kebbin I haven’t tried any, but I’ll be either wrap the Button with Surface or use Text .

OK. Thanks! Still trying to learn a lot about all this stuff!
