"and we're working on fixing that" is right there

I know, but wouldn’t it be the exact same Kotlin code that drives Web, Desktop, and Android (just with a different underlying canvas implementation)? That’s why I’m a little confused why it wouldn’t be there.

[ephemient]

text input is far more than "just canvas"

[spierce7]

Interesting, can you elaborate?

[ephemient]

https://drewdevault.com/2021/06/27/You-cant-capture-the-nuance.html talks about some of them

[ephemient]

also he doesn't even touch upon the fact that the native behavior of motion keys like home/end and arrows with modifiers is different on different platforms

canvas approach will be used in Android too?

[spierce7]

@Javier It’s my understanding that it already is, and always has

[Javier]

then why there are limitations for things like colors for shadows based on api levels?

[spierce7]

The only limitation with shadows that I know of is very large and far reaching - https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/160665122

I know that issue, indeed if you check the latest commits, in old apis the color is black
