Expanding Action

An icon button that widens to reveal its text label on hover.

Installation

caveui components are copy-paste Jetpack Compose built entirely on Material 3 — there's no caveui dependency to add. Make sure Material 3 is on your classpath (it ships with the Compose BOM), then copy the Usage snippet below into your project.

kotlin

// build.gradle.kts (module)
dependencies {
    implementation(platform("androidx.compose:compose-bom:2025.06.00"))
    implementation("androidx.compose.material3:material3")
}

Usage

kotlin

var expanded by remember { mutableStateOf(false) }
Button(
    onClick = {},
    modifier = Modifier.pointerInput(Unit) {
        detectTapGestures { expanded = !expanded }
    },
) {
    Icon(Icons.Filled.Add, contentDescription = null)
    AnimatedVisibility(expanded) {
        Row {
            Spacer(Modifier.width(8.dp))
            Text("New task")
        }
    }
}
