This user's comment sums it up pretty nicely: https://twitter.com/webnakama/status/1643254547442462721

Essentially:

I found a problem with Layout Inspecter while investigating the recompose part of Jetpack Compose. This tool does not show the number of recomposes unless you expand the hierarchy. So, if the hierarchy of Composable is deep, there is a risk of overlooking it unless all are expanded. You can't discover it just by highlighting on the screen.

Probably we should have two counts displayed: (1) the number of times the particular widget recomposed (2) the number of recompositions which occurred within the children of a widget. This will allow users to notice and expand the parent nodes when they see large numbers.

Maybe a dup of b/368420773?

Android Gradle Plugin: 8.7.1

Could you try the latest canary, AGP 8.8.0-alpha09?

Marked as fixed.

I just updated to Android Gradle Plugin: 8.7.2 and the bug is fixed.

I spoke too soon. The bug appears gone when I use a different computer, but that is only because the lint check is disabled on it. The computer with the false positive is a new cloning of my github project which apparently has the lint check enabled. The AGP 8.8.0-alpha09 plugin will not work on ladybug, and I'm too busy to switch to a canary build of android studio just to fix a false positive lint check, sorry.

I just tried running lint on two more of my computers, one which also has a fresh clone of the github project, and one which has an "ancient" (but up to date) clone of the project -- the two computers have very different Settings -> Editor -> Inspections choices. The old clones do not have this lint check anywhere in their choices, whereas new clones do. Very odd indeed. (I have .idea/ in my .gitignore BTW).
