# 1.8.0-alpha01 (November 2024)

_Changes since 1.7.1_

## Highlights

### iOS

- [LocalUIViewController moved to the `androidx.compose.ui.uikit` module](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1608)
- [Update `AccessibilitySyncOptions` and remove `AccessibilityDebugLogger` from public API](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1604)
- [ComposeUIViewControllerDelegate marked as deprecated](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1651). Use parent view controller to override the methods of the UIViewController class
- [Remove experimental flag from `fun enableTraceOSLog()`](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1652)
- [Remove obsolete Canvas Layers mode on iOS](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1680)

## Breaking Changes

### Multiple Platforms

- [Tests that relied on `waitForIdle`, `awaitIdle` or `runOnIdle`](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1550) (whether explicit or implicit) executing `delay`-ed coroutines will no longer work correctly. To fix this advance the test time via `mainClock` manually, as needed
For example, tests that previously did something like:
```
var updateText by mutableStateOf(false)
var text by mutableStateOf("0")
setContent {
LaunchedEffect(updateText) {
if (updateText) {
delay(1000)
text = "1"
}
}
}
updateText = true
waitForIdle()
assertEquals("1", text)
```
will need to add `mainClock.advanceTimeBy(1000)` after `waitForIdle()`, because `waitForIdle` no longer waits for the `delay`-ed coroutine to complete
- [Tests that advance the test clock](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1550) (via `mainClock.advanceTimeBy`) may see different behavior with regards to the amount and timing of recomposition, layout, drawing and effects
- [`runOnIdle` will now execute `action` on the UI thread](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1601)
- [`runOnIdle` will no longer call `waitForIdle` after executing the action](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1601)
- [Advancing `mainClock` such that it doesn't reach the next frame, will no longer cause a recomposition](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1618)

### Desktop

- [Deprecated/experimental `Modifier.onExternalDrag` has been removed - common `Modifier.dragAndDropTarget` API should be used instead](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1606)

## Features

### Multiple Platforms

- [Support configurable vertical text centering via `LineHeightStyle.Alignment`](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1569)
- [Support Variable Fonts In All Platforms](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1623)

### iOS

- [Add localised string for VoiceOver accessibility support](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1441)
- [Support state announcements for scrollable lists in VoiceOver](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1644)
- [Support for accessibility gestures for left-to-right languages](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1663)

### Desktop

- [Compose plugin for IntelliJ IDEA now supports K2 mode](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform/pull/5138)

### Resources

- [Add new API to preload and cache font and image resources on web targets: `preloadFont`, `preloadImageBitmap`, `preloadImageVector`](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform/pull/5159)

### Gradle Plugin

- [Support compose resources in `androidLibrary` target](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform/pull/5157)

### Navigation

- [Basic support a navigation by deep links](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1610)
- [Commonize `navController.navigate(Uri)` method](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1617)
- [Implemented non-android `navController.handleDeepLink(NavDeepLinkRequest)` method](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1617)
- [New API to configure browser navigation buttons and the address line](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1621)
- [Navigation via a browser address field](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1640)

## Fixes

### Multiple Platforms

- [`waitForIdle`, `awaitIdle` and `runOnIdle` no longer consider Compose to be non-idle when coroutines launched in a composition scope call `delay`](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1550). This prevents tests with an infinite loop with `delay` in a `LaunchedEffect` from hanging
- [Tests that advance the test clock](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1550) (via `mainClock.advanceTimeBy`) will now correctly (re)compose/layout/draw/effects each virtual frame as needed
- [`runOnIdle` will now execute `action` on the UI thread, as Android behaves](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1601)
- [`runOnIdle` will no longer call `waitForIdle` after executing the action, as Android behaves](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1601)
- [The overhead for running an empty test has been significantly reduced](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1615)

### iOS

- [Deprecate defaultUIKitMain()](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1585)
- [Fixed visibility of `androidx.compose.material3.internal.formatWithSkeleton` that was accidently marked as public](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1609)
- [Fix a bug where the accessibility tree did not reload when VoiceOver was enabled](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1656)
- [Fix Display Cutout Padding when rotating the device](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1645)

### Desktop

- [Fix drag-and-drop when the list of supported actions doesn't include `Move`](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1683)
- [Fix accessibility focus when using `compose.swing.render.on.graphics=true`](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1688)
- [Fix "Context menu on desktop shows incorrect items after the second showing"](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform-core/pull/1693)

### Resources

- [Read `android:autoMirrored="true"` property and pass it to ImageVector builder](https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform/pull/5140)

### Navigation
