I tried to look around but I can't find a way to force a focus, set the cursor to the end of text and still be able to move the cursor to any part of the text upon pressing/clicking.
With FocusRequester the cursor is set to the start of text, but with TextFieldValue(<text>, <range>) I'm able to place the cursor at the end, the problem is that with this approach the cursor is always forced to any specified selection = TextRange(<index>)(in my case its the end using the current length of the changing value onValueChange), I have no idea how to play with TextFieldValue's integer properties upon pressing the text to move the cursor based on click/press event on the text value
Below is the implementation
var textFieldValue by remember { mutableStateOf(TextFieldValue("Some Text")) }
Row (
modifier = Modifier
.height(150.dp)
.fillMaxWidth()
.clickable {
focusRequester.requestFocus()
textFieldValue = textFieldValue.copy(selection = TextRange("Some Text".length))
}
) {
BasicTextField(
modifier = Modifier.focusRequester(focusRequester),
value = textFieldValue,
onValueChange = {
textFieldValue =
textFieldValue.copy(text = it.text, selection = TextRange(it.text.length))
},
)
}
And what I'm trying to achieve (Large text area with text set and starts from top-left), its entire part should be clickable and triggers focus for the text field, the reason why I wrapped it in a Row with a clickable modifier.
I wasn't able to achieve this with a single text field with specified height, as TextAlign doesn't have a Top-Start alignment
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you
