In Android View System you can see the UI tree of different elements that make up the view hierachy for example as shown below:
Apart from Previewing the Composables, I am looking for a way to visualize the Composables in a Component Tree for example given this code:
#Composable
fun TodoScreen(....) {
Column(){
LazyColumn{
...}
Row{
Button(){....}
Text(){...}
}
}
}
Please let me know if there is a way to display a Component Tree on Android Studio Arctic Fox similar to the above Android View Hierachy Image.
You can use View -> Tool Windows -> Layout Inspector

Accompanist library has flow layouts that do exactly that: https://github.com/google/accompanist/tree/main/flowlayout
There are also similar flow layouts in the official compose foundation library that were just recently merged, but those are only available as snapshot builds for now.
How can I make a design like the image with Jetpack Compose? I searched a lot, but I couldn't get any answer similar to the structure I wanted.
You can try out Romain's newest library
Composable widget for Jetpack Compose that allows to flow text around arbitrary shapes over multiple columns.
to achieve this and much more: https://github.com/romainguy/combo-breaker
How about using a simple Text only, but inside a Box where we can clip the size of the image using modifier!!
Box {
Image(modifier = modifier.clicp(RoundedCornerShape(...)))
Text(...)
}
modifier.clip(...) is something which can do the trick.
You can add Images inside text using AnnotatedString and inLineContent parameter of Text Composable
like How adding ImageSpan in jetpack compose Text
or you can use Box Composable and Clip your image using Modifier.clip(Shape)
I have several composables with a preview in my activity. they take a long time to render, and I only need to check one composable. How do I disable the composable preview in Android Jetpack Compose?
You could use the group attribute in the Preview.
Something like:
#Composable
#Preview(group="Test")
fun test1(){ }
Then in the Preview panel you can select the preview group:
In this way you can select the preview to be displayed.
I'm new to Jetpack Compose. I created an app and as a preview I get only the views, in my case a text view.
How can I preview a screen and not an individual element?
I want something like that:
I am using Android Studio 2020.3.1 Canary 8.
Use the annotation #Preview(showSystemUi = true).
More info about the preview annotations here.
I started using Jetpack Compose and I'm very happy with it. I replaced a couple of layouts that where defined in xml by a #Composable function.
When I went back to my Navigation-xml I noticed that the preview inside every screen is done with tools:layout property. And property reference to a layout in xml. Not to an #Composable function.
Is there already a way to reference to a #Composable function from tools:layout in a Navigation xml so that the preview of my entire flow will be visible?
