created issue #1

Feb 12, 2025 08:40AM

Jetpack Compose version: 1.8.0-beta01

Jetpack Compose component used: androidx.compose.ui:ui-tooling

Android Studio Build: #AI-242.23339.11.2421.12700392

Kotlin version: 2.0.20

When you try to use the new autofill semantics functionality on a textfield with a visualTransformation the password manager will store asterisks as the password instead of the actual value, e.g ******** instead of password, rendering the feature useless. If I remove the visual transformation everything works as intended.

Steps to Reproduce or Code Sample to Reproduce:

OutlinedTextField(
  visualTransformation = if (showPassword) VisualTransformation.None else PasswordVisualTransformation(),
  modifier = Modifier.semantics {
    contentType = ContentType.Password
  }
  ...
)

Hi all, we are intently working on fixing this bug. Please do not use Autofill APIs in beta02 or beta01 in any production apps for now. This will be fixed in beta03.

Please let us know if you have any other issues.

Introduce InputText Semantics Property

Expand for full commit details

Introduce InputText Semantics Property 
 
TextFields have an EditableText semantics property which 
stores the text value after output transformation. Autofill 
needs access to the text value after input transformation 
but before output transformation. Adding this semantics 
property helps send the right information to the Autofill 
service. 
 
Bug: 395911609 
Bug: 176949051 
Test: Added new tests and updated existing tests 
Relnote: "Added a new semantics property InputText that captures 
a textfield's value before output transformation is applied."

Megan can we use the deprecated autofill APIs on beta01/02. So we can update to the latest version but will use deprecated until beta03?
