  • Runtime 1.7.6
  • UI 1.7.6
  • Foundation 1.7.6
  • Material 1.7.6
  • Material3 1.3.1

• Lifecycle libraries org.jetbrains.androidx.lifecycle:lifecycle-*:2.8.4. Based on Jetpack Lifecycle 2.8.5

1.8.0-alpha01

Changes since 1.7.1

Highlights

iOS

• LocalUIViewController moved to the androidx.compose.ui.uikit module
• Update AccessibilitySyncOptions and remove AccessibilityDebugLogger from public API
• ComposeUIViewControllerDelegate marked as deprecated. Use parent view controller to override the methods of the UIViewController class
• Remove experimental flag from fun enableTraceOSLog()
• Remove obsolete Canvas Layers mode on iOS

Breaking Changes

Multiple Platforms

• Tests that relied on waitForIdle, awaitIdle or runOnIdle (whether explicit or implicit) executing delay-ed coroutines will no longer work correctly. To fix this advance the test time via mainClock manually, as needed
  For example, tests that previously did something like:

  var updateText by mutableStateOf(false)
  var text by mutableStateOf("0")
  setContent {
      LaunchedEffect(updateText) {
          if (updateText) {
              delay(1000)
              text = "1"
          }
      }
  }
  updateText = true
  waitForIdle()
  assertEquals("1", text)
  

  will need to add mainClock.advanceTimeBy(1000) after waitForIdle(), because waitForIdle no longer waits for the delay-ed coroutine to complete
• Tests that advance the test clock (via mainClock.advanceTimeBy) may see different behavior with regards to the amount and timing of recomposition, layout, drawing and effects
• runOnIdle will now execute action on the UI thread
• runOnIdle will no longer call waitForIdle after executing the action
• Advancing mainClock such that it doesn't reach the next frame, will no longer cause a recomposition

Desktop

• Deprecated/experimental Modifier.onExternalDrag has been removed - common Modifier.dragAndDropTarget API should be used instead

Features

Multiple Platforms

• Support configurable vertical text centering via LineHeightStyle.Alignment
• Support Variable Fonts In All Platforms

iOS

• Add localised string for VoiceOver accessibility support
• Support state announcements for scrollable lists in VoiceOver
• Support for accessibility gestures for left-to-right languages

Desktop

• Compose plugin for IntelliJ IDEA now supports K2 mode

Resources

• Add new API to preload and cache font and image resources on web targets: preloadFont, preloadImageBitmap, preloadImageVector

Gradle Plugin

• Support compose resources in androidLibrary target

Navigation

• Basic support a navigation by deep links
• Commonize navController.navigate(Uri) method
• Implemented non-android navController.handleDeepLink(NavDeepLinkRequest) method
• New API to configure browser navigation buttons and the address line
• Navigation via a browser address field

Fixes

Multiple Platforms

• waitForIdle, awaitIdle and runOnIdle no longer consider Compose to be non-idle when coroutines launched in a composition scope call delay. This prevents tests with an infinite loop with delay in a LaunchedEffect from hanging
• Tests that advance the test clock (via mainClock.advanceTimeBy) will now correctly (re)compose/layout/draw/effects each virtual frame as needed
• runOnIdle will now execute action on the UI thread, as Android behaves
• runOnIdle will no longer call waitForIdle after executing the action, as Android behaves
• The overhead for running an empty test has been significantly reduced

iOS

• Deprecate defaultUIKitMain()
• Fixed visibility of androidx.compose.material3.internal.formatWithSkeleton that was accidently marked as public
• Fix a bug where the accessibility tree did not reload when VoiceOver was enabled
• Fix Display Cutout Padding when rotating the device

Desktop

• Fix drag-and-drop when the list of supported actions doesn't include Move
• Fix accessibility focus when using compose.swing.render.on.graphics=true
• Fix "Context menu on desktop shows incorrect items after the second showing"

1.7.0

Changes since 1.6.11

Highlights

Resources

• Compose Multiplatform resources are stored in the android assets now. This fixes Android Studio Preview and cases such as a rendering resource files in WebViews or Media Players

Navigation

• Shared Element Transitions
• Safe Args in Navigation Compose

Web

• skiko.js is redundant in case of K/Wasm Compose Multiplatform for web applications and it can be removed from index.html files to not load redundant files. skiko.js will be removed from the k/wasm distribution in the future releases. skiko.js is still needed in case of K/JS Compose Multiplatform for web apps

Breaking changes

iOS

• UIKitView and UIKitViewController in package androidx.compose.ui.interop are deprecated. New API are mentioned in deprecation message. Deprecated invocations should work fine unless custom onResize is used, it is disallowed now and will print a warning.
• Actual of expected InteropView on iOS is UIResponder now instead of UIView. It's the first common ancestor for UIViewController and UIView, both of which can be integrated using iOS interop APIs
• The app will crash by default, if CADisableMinimumFrameDurationOnPhone is not set to true in Info.plist. Use newly added ComposeUIViewControllerConfiguration.enforceStrictPlistSanityCheck to opt-out of this behavior

Desktop

• Modifier.onExternalDrag has been deprecated in favor of the new Modifier.dragAndDropTarget

Android

• Minimal supported AGP raised to 8.1.0

Resources

• Deprecate resources in compose.ui in favour of the new resource library

Features

Multiple Platforms

• The clickable modifier now responds to NumPadEnter and Spacebar, too, in addition to Enter
• LocalLifecycleOwner moved from Compose UI to lifecycle-runtime-compose so that its Compose-based helper APIs can be used outside of Compose UI
• Skia is updated to m126
• Commonized org.jetbrains.compose.material3:material3-window-size-class module
• Commonized org.jetbrains.compose.material3.adaptive:adaptive* modules
• New multiplatform module "material-navigation" (in beta status)
• material3-adaptive-navigation-suite is multiplatform now
• Support Kotlin 1.9.25

iOS

• Initial iOS floating cursor support
• Added accessibilityEnabled: Boolean = true argument to UIKitView and UIKitViewController
• preferredStatusBarStyle, preferredStatysBarAnimation and prefersStatusBarHidden are added to ComposeUIViewControllerDelegate to allow status bar appearance modification
• Improvements in touches processing to detect if touches were meant to be delivered to interop views, or should be processed by Compose
• New UIKitView and UIKitViewController API in package androidx.compose.ui.viewinterop. Support of onReset to reuse the interop composable emitted node and avoid excessive native views reallocations, fine-grain touches strategy control (cooperative with explicit time delay, non-cooperative where no touches are received by Compose, ignoring touches)
• Basic support for BasicTextField(TextFieldState, ...) on iOS

Desktop

• Add constructor with RenderSettings to ComposePanel. Added a class RenderSettings with val isVsyncEnabled: Boolean?. When set to true gives a hint to renderer implementation of the particular ComposePanel to reduce the latency between the input and visual changes in exchange for possible screen tearing
• Add public moveEnabled and positionPercentage setters in SplitPaneState
• Implemented Drag-and-Drop from AOSP: Modifier.dragAndDropSource and Modifier.dragAndDropTarget
• Added support for input methods (languages such as Chinese, Korean, Arabic) to BasicTextField(TextFieldState, ...)
• Add dynamic Drag&Drop target indication (🚫 icon under cursor if currently there is no valid drop target under it)
• The thickness of border resizers in undecorated windows and dialogs can now be controlled by passing a new decoration argument

Resources

• Speed resources web rendering up by the reading a cached value instantly
• If there is no resource with suitable density, use resource with the most suitable density, otherwise use default (similar to the Android logic)
• Add a customization for resources directories. Now it is possible to use e.g downloaded resources
• Now the gradle plugin generates resources map to find a resource by a string ID
• To avoid constant reading raw font bytes on each Font usage on non-android targets, there was added the font cache. Android has own font cache inside the platform implementation
• Added utility functions to decode Bitmap ByteArray as ImageVector and XML ByteArray as ImageVector in the common code and SVG ByteArray as Painter in the non-android code
• Added support of test resources in Compose Multiplatform projects
• Added support of multi-module resources in JVM-only projects

Gradle Plugin

• New compose.material3AdaptiveNavigationSuite shortcut in the gradle plugin

Fixes

• Fix focus for editable TextField inside ExposedDropdownMenuBox
• Fix changing FontRenderingSettings is not reflected until composition restarts

iOS

• Pressing directional keys on a physical keyboard connected to iOS device doesn't cause a crash
