How can I capture key events happening on a ClickableText? I've tried with Modifier.onPreviewKeyEvent but nothing seems to be happening...

[Karlo Lozovina]

I have a single widget on the screen, and it (ClickableText) starts registering key events if I press a Tab key before... I guess it's not getting the focus somewhow?

I've tried with a FocusRequester(), then in the onClick handler calling focusRequester.requestFous(), but nothing's happening..

Huh, it seems I have to call .focusRequster() Modifier before calling .focusable(), otherwise it doesn't work, weird

The order of calls to Modifier is important. https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/androidx/compose/ui/focus/FocusRequester

Also, make sure to remember your FocusRequester() (It's easy to forget and a source of weird bugs)
