I am using Jetpack Compose for Android TV. For navigation drawer I use ModalNavigationDrawer
. One of items in drawer is Home.
Here are two scenarios:
When I press Home in navigation drawer, it opens screen which contains Box
with custom item (focus is still on Home in navigation drawer). When I press button right on remote controller, navigation drawer closes and focus goes to the button in custom item. That is test scenario and it works as expected.
When I press Home, I actually want to open screen which contains LazyColumn
with custom items. When I press button right on remote controller, navigation drawer doesn't close and focus doesn't go to button in custom item. That is not ok. I want behavior as in first scenario, I want navigation drawer to close and switch focus from navigation drawer to button in custom item in LazyColumn
.
Custom item persist of image (as background, not focusable) and two buttons (focusable).
Why pressing right button on remote controller doesn't have the same effect when I use Box and LazyColumn? They both have the same child custom item. How to get effect from Box on LazyColumn?
I found solution: you have to set start padding or x offset of LazyColumn on 16.dp or higher and then it works.
I hope it will help to someone :)
