April 20, 2022

New Features

  • material3-window-size-class is a new library that provides support for window size classes: a set of opinionated viewport breakpoints for you to design, develop, and test resizable application layouts against. You can use calculateWindowSizeClass to retrieve a window size class instance, which you can use to determine how your UI should appear, such as showing a navigation rail instead of bottom navigation for larger window sizes. For more information and sample usage see the API reference documentation for WindowSizeClass. For more information on window size class definitions, see the public guidance on supporting different screen sizes.

API Changes

  • Adds default FAB elevation for BottomAppBar, removes trailing lambda from BottomAppBar with FAB. (I92c47)

  • Updates Material 3 Snackbar API to accept color values for the optional action and dismiss-action. (Ibe4b4)
  • Partial consumption (down OR position) has been deprecated in PointerInputChange. You can use consume() to consume the change completely. You can use isConsumed to determine whether or not someone else has previously consumed the change.
  • PointerInputChange::copy() now always makes a shallow copy. It means that copies of PointerInputChange will be consumed once one of the copies is consumed. If you want to create an unbound PointerInputChange, use constructor instead. (Ie6be4, b/225669674)
  • Changes to the Cards API to receive the container and content colors via a CardColors interface, and to support a disabled state for clickable cards. (I927df)
  • The parameter backgroundColor has been renamed containerColor in Material 3 text fields for improved consistency with other components. (I6fbd9)

Bug Fixes

  • Updates to the standard IconButton to align it with the Material3 spec. (I09eab)
  • Move the top bar height of material3 Scaffold into the padding passed to content, allowing the content to render underneath the top app bar. If the PaddingValues are ignored, then the content might be obscured by the top bar. (I83cbc, b/217776202)
