To Reproduce

Tested with the Hello World project template created by IDEA.

@Composable
@Preview
fun App() {
    var text by remember { mutableStateOf("Hello, World!") }

    MaterialTheme {
        Button(onClick = {
            text = "Hello, Desktop!"
        }) {
            Text(text)
        }

    Window(onCloseRequest = ::exitApplication) {
        App()
    }
}

Expected behavior A clear and concise description of what you expected to happen.

Additional context

• I thought it was related to locale (es_VE) but after switching to English it still happens
• The texts in dialog title and the menu are displayed properly

Does this show the text?

fun main() = singleWindowApplication(
    state = WindowState(
        size = DpSize(400.dp, 800.dp)
    )
) {
    Text("Hello")
}

[sdercolin]

Tried. The text is still not displayed.

We're going to need something more to go on, since it's obviously a unique case. Can you think of any reason (other than the locale) that particular PC won't render compose text?

[sdercolin]

I think it looks like similar to #214, but it's already solved 🤔 Not sure if related but this device is AMD CPU, which is somehow rare..

[m-sasha]

Maybe it's a regression, or maybe that PC has even less memory in its graphics card. Can you try with either SKIKO_RENDER_API=SOFTWARE (environment variable) or skiko.renderApi=SOFTWARE (Java system property)?

[sdercolin]

It's working after setting SKIKO_RENDER_API=SOFTWARE!

Is it possible to fix the problem?

[m-sasha]

What's the graphics card on that PC?

[sdercolin]

Provided by the user integrated graphic ati radeon 4200 hd

[m-sasha]

That GPU doesn't support even DirectX 11. But we should fallback gracefully to OpenGL or software renderer.

Can you try SKIKO_RENDER_API=OPENGL?

[sdercolin]

Sorry for the delay. OPENGL does not work either.

[m-sasha]

Perhaps our fallback mechanism is broken or doesn't always detect an unsupported render API.
