I agree with your idea.
@j-m-hoffmann Thank you 👍

Does anyone know how to add 3 dots (...) at the end of the line when not expanded?

I imagine this is hard because you'd have to know the last 3 chars shown on the line and then replace them with ... and then ensure the line still displays them (didn't grow).

Or perhaps there's a better/idiomatic way to mark a message as incompletely-showing and thus in need of expansion?

Another,unrelated, thing:
EDIT: [SOLVED] by replacing remember with rememberSaveable yay!(thanks to this and this) // Does anyone know how to not lose the state of the expansion even though you scrolled away ? for example, expand the second entry then scroll to the bottom, then scroll back up, the second entry is no longer expanded! The state of isExpanded was lost and reset to false... This is rather unexpected (from the UI perspective)... (but of course code-wise it makes sense that the value false gets set when recomposition happens)

thank for the screenshot and help. Also how do you have the package name dev.username.[something] I only have com.example.composetutorial

@rofrol and @nadim365 we're clearly not creating a class, but an object, so what you have to select when you click on Kotlin Class/File, should be an object.

thanks very much.

thanks very much.

You're welcome, glad that my response helped out.
