Android Compose, clickable surface on top of buttons - android

Is it possible to create full screen, clickable, transparent surface/box, that will overlap compose buttons and other composables. I want to keep buttons visible but unreachable for the user.
When I set them(buttons) as disabled, they turn to an unclickable area( on top of the clickable surface) that I can't have on the screen. Other composables, like Text,Box etc. act like they are "under" clickable surface.
#Composable
fun ShowAnswers(question: Question, onSurfaceClick: () -> Unit, questionsLeft: Int) {
Surface(modifier = Modifier.clickable { onSurfaceClick() }) {
Column(
verticalArrangement = Arrangement.Center,
horizontalAlignment = Alignment.CenterHorizontally,
modifier = Modifier.padding(8.dp)
) {
Text(
text = stringResource(id = R.string.questions_left, questionsLeft),
fontSize = 24.sp
)
Spacer(modifier = Modifier.height(20.dp))
QuestionCard(question = question)
Spacer(modifier = Modifier.height(20.dp))
ShowCorrectAnswer(question = question)
}
}
}
ShowCorrectAnswer(...) contains buttons that i need to "overlap"

You can use a simple transparent Box to overlay the Surface with the question.
Something like:
var isActive by remember { mutableStateOf(false) }
Box(modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize()) {
Surface() {
Column() {
//....
QuestionCard(question = question)
//....
Button(onClick = { isActive = true }) {
//...
}
}
}
if (isActive){
Box(
modifier = Modifier
.fillMaxSize()
.background(Color.Transparent)
.clickable(
enabled=isActive,
interactionSource = interactionSource,
indication = null)
{
//do something
}
)
}
}

Adding a fillMaxSize Box inside the surface, after column, solved the problem.
But placing the Box before Column makie it appear "under" it.
#Composable
fun ShowAnswers(question: Question, onSurfaceClick: () -> Unit, questionsLeft: Int) {
Surface {
Column(
verticalArrangement = Arrangement.Center,
horizontalAlignment = Alignment.CenterHorizontally,
modifier = Modifier.padding(8.dp)
) {
Text(
text = stringResource(id = R.string.questions_left, questionsLeft),
fontSize = 24.sp
)
Spacer(modifier = Modifier.height(20.dp))
QuestionCard(question = question)
Spacer(modifier = Modifier.height(20.dp))
ShowCorrectAnswer(question = question)
}
**Box(modifier = Modifier
.fillMaxSize()
.background(Color.Transparent)
.clickable { onSurfaceClick() })**
}
}

Prevent other composables in a box to be focusable and clickable, Jetpack Compose

When placing 2 or more composables in a Box() in jetpack compose, even if they overlap, they can be focused and clicked through each other, is there a way to prevent this behavior?
Box(
modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize()
) {
Column(
modifier = Modifier
.fillMaxSize(),
verticalArrangement = Arrangement.Bottom,
horizontalAlignment = Alignment.CenterHorizontally
) {
Button(onClick = { /*TODO*/ }) {
Text(text = "Should NOT be clickable and focusable")
}
}
}
Column(
modifier = Modifier
.fillMaxSize()
.background(
brush = SolidColor(Color.Gray),
alpha = 0.8f
),
verticalArrangement = Arrangement.Top,
horizontalAlignment = Alignment.CenterHorizontally
) {
Button(onClick = { /*TODO*/ }) {
Text(text = "Should be clickable and focusable")
}
}
resulting in:
Expected behavior is when the button on the top is visible, I don't want the button in the top to be clickable And focusable.

Jetpack compose - Lazy Column crashes on Recompose

Hi I am using Jetpack Compose to create a Heterogenous list. I was successful in implementing it. My requirement is when I try to click an Item in the list, I need to recompose the list. The app crashes when tried to refresh the list with below exception:
java.lang.IllegalStateException: Vertically scrollable component was measured with an infinity maximum height constraints, which is disallowed. One of the common reasons is nesting layouts like LazyColumn and Column(Modifier.verticalScroll()). If you want to add a header before the list of items please add a header as a separate item() before the main items() inside the LazyColumn scope. There are could be other reasons for this to happen: your ComposeView was added into a LinearLayout with some weight, you applied Modifier.wrapContentSize(unbounded = true) or wrote a custom layout. Please try to remove the source of infinite constraints in the hierarchy above the scrolling container
My code is below:
#Composable fun PrepareOverViewScreen(overViewList: List<OverViewListItem>) {
Scaffold(topBar = { TopBar("OverView") },
content = { DisplayOverViewScreen(overViewList = overViewList) },
backgroundColor = Color(0xFFf2f2f2)
)
}
#Composable fun DisplayOverViewScreen(
modifier: Modifier = Modifier, overViewList: List<OverViewListItem>
) {
LazyColumn(modifier = modifier) {
items(overViewList) { data ->
when (data) {
is OverViewHeaderItem -> {
HeaderItem(data,overViewList)
}
}
}
}
}
HeaderItem Composable Function is below :
#Composable fun HeaderItem(overViewHeaderItem: OverViewHeaderItem,overViewList: List<OverViewListItem>) { <br>
var angle by remember {
mutableStateOf(0f)
}
var canDisplayChild by remember {
mutableStateOf(false)
}
**if(canDisplayChild){
HandleHistoryTodayChild(canDisplayChild = true,overViewList)
}**
when (overViewHeaderItem.listType) {
ItemType.IN_PROGRESS_HEADER -> {
Column(
modifier = Modifier
.fillMaxWidth()
.height(50.dp)
.background(color = Color(0xffdc8633)),
verticalArrangement = Arrangement.Center, horizontalAlignment = Alignment.Start
) {
Text(
text = "In Progress", color = Color.White,
modifier = Modifier.padding(start = 16.dp)
)
}
}
ItemType.HISTORY_TODAY_HEADER -> {
Column(
modifier = Modifier
.fillMaxWidth()
.height(50.dp)
.background(color = Color(0xffd7d7d7)),
verticalArrangement = Arrangement.Center, horizontalAlignment = Alignment.Start
) {
Text(
text = stringResource(R.string.history_label), color = Color.Black,
modifier = Modifier.padding(start = 16.dp)
)
}
}
else -> {
Row(modifier = Modifier
.fillMaxWidth()
.height(50.dp)
.background(color = Color(0xffd7d7d7)),
horizontalArrangement = Arrangement.Start, verticalAlignment = Alignment.CenterVertically) {
Text(
text = stringResource(R.string.history_yesterday), color = Color.Black,
modifier = Modifier.padding(start = 16.dp)
)
Spacer(Modifier.weight(1f))
**Image(
painter = painterResource(id = R.drawable.ic_expand_more),
modifier = Modifier
.padding(end = 5.dp)
.rotate(angle)
.clickable {
angle = (angle + 180) % 360f
canDisplayChild = !canDisplayChild
},
contentDescription = "Expandable Image"
)**
}
}
}
}
Handle History info where recomposition is called
#Composable
fun HandleHistoryTodayChild(canDisplayChild:Boolean,overViewList: List<OverViewListItem>) {
if(canDisplayChild){
**PrepareOverViewScreen(overViewList = overViewList)**
}
}
Your problem should be:
Spacer(Modifier.weight(1f))
Try to specify a fixed height and work your solution from there.

Is there a way to process like a dialog without Dialog Composable?

With Jetpack Compose, I'm trying to implement a function to switch between items with flick actions, like the ViewPager in Android JetPack.
At first I tried to get it to work using a dialog as shown in the code below. However, I found that the dialog cannot be moved horizontally with flick actions.
#OptIn(ExperimentalPagerApi::class)
#Composable
fun ContentDisplayWindow(
openDialog: MutableState<Boolean>,
contentList: List<Content>,
) {
Column(
modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth(),
horizontalAlignment = Alignment.CenterHorizontally
) {
IconButton(
modifier = Modifier.align(Alignment.End),
onClick = { openDialog.value = false }
) {
Icon(
painter = painterResource(R.drawable.ic_arrow_back),
contentDescription = ""
)
}
HorizontalPager(
count = contentList.size
) { index ->
Dialog(
onDismissRequest = { openDialog.value = false },
properties = DialogProperties(dismissOnClickOutside = false)
) {
Column(
modifier = Modifier
.fillMaxWidth()
.wrapContentHeight()
.border(2.dp, Color.Red)
.background(color = MaterialTheme.colors.surface)
) {
Text(
text = contentList[index].title,
modifier = Modifier.padding(
top = 10.dp,
bottom = 10.dp,
start = 20.dp
)
)
Spacer(modifier = Modifier.padding(vertical = 10.dp))
Text(
text = contentList[index].description,
modifier = Modifier.padding(
top = 10.dp,
bottom = 10.dp,
start = 20.dp
)
)
}
}
}
}
}
implementaton:
implementation "com.google.accompanist:accompanist-pager:0.25.1"
So I tried to find a way to perform the process of dimming the screen and disabling other buttons or input fields such as a dialog, but was not able to find it. Is there any other way to make it work like a dialog?

Align Box/Column to bottom of screen Jetpack Compose

I essentially want cards pinned to the top with a group of buttons pinned to the bottom (on screen keyboard)
Using Column with a modifier like so only leads to the buttons covering the top cards:
fun HomeScreen() {
Column(
modifier = Modifier
.fillMaxWidth(),
verticalArrangement = Arrangement.SpaceAround
) {
WordGrid()
}
Column(
modifier = Modifier
.fillMaxWidth(),
verticalArrangement = Arrangement.Bottom
) {
Keyboard()
}
I have tried using all the different Arrangements, using a row and using Boxes, but can't seem to get it to work.
Curiously, in the #Preview it looks as though the above code works, but when ran on an emulator they are both at the top of the screen.
Using a spacer is another option, but would this cause issues in other ways? maybe with screen sizes etc?
If you want your buttons row to be pinned to the bottom, you have to set the Column to have a weight of 1f, something like this
MyTheme {
Surface(color = MyTheme.colors.background) {
// Cards content
Column(
modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth()
) {
Column(
modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth().weight(1f)
) {
Card(
modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth().height(80.dp).padding(all = 16.dp),
backgroundColor = Color.Red,
) {
Text(text = "Card 1")
}
Card(
modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth().height(80.dp).padding(all = 16.dp),
backgroundColor = Color.Green,
) {
Text(text = "Card 2")
}
Card(
modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth().height(80.dp).padding(all = 16.dp),
backgroundColor = Color.Blue,
) {
Text(text = "Card 3")
}
}
// Buttons content
Row(
modifier = Modifier.fillMaxWidth()
) {
Button(
onClick = {},
modifier = Modifier.padding(horizontal = 8.dp)
) {
Text(text = "Button 1")
}
Button(
onClick = {},
modifier = Modifier.padding(horizontal = 8.dp)
) {
Text(text = "Button 3")
}
Button(
onClick = {},
modifier = Modifier.padding(horizontal = 8.dp)
) {
Text(text = "Button 2")
}
}
}
}
}

How to optimise laggy JetPack Compose layout

I'm using a HorizontalPager from accompanist package. The pager will have 1 page for each exercise stored by the user.
Each page in the pager has a LazyColumn which contain multiple cards with controls such as IconButtons and BasicTextField. The number of cards depends on number of sets configured by the user. I expect the typical number to be between 1 to 8 but only 3 to 5 would be visible on the screen at any given time (depending on the screen size and resolution).
The issue is that when this layout produces noticeable lag (animations skip frames) every time the HorizontalPager needs to build a new page that has more than 3 cards. This happens when swapping between pages. The same happens in debug and release versions running on a real device (Galaxy S10e) and emulator.
I'm trying to optimise this layout, so each frame renders in no more than 16ms regardless of the number of cards shown on the screen.
I've previously tried to solve this issue by setting fixed heights to some composables but that didn't help much. I've also tried using Text instead of BasicTextField, which would be then replaced with BasicTextField when users taps on the text but this hasn't helped much, therefore I removed this implementation.
Do you have some suggestions how performance of this layout could be improved to eliminate the lag?

Icon(
painter = painterResource(id = R.drawable.ic_round_add_24),
contentDescription = "Minus",
tint = MaterialTheme.colors.onSurface
)
}
}
}
This profiler print screen shows rendering of a single card called SetsAndRepsTrackingControls
