SelectionContainer not working in Web K/Wasm

[Phaestion]

We are evaluating Compose Web K/Wasm for the development of our admin portal webapps. But first I'm evaluating it in non-critical side project.

I noticed there that when using a Text composable wrapped in a SelectionContainer that the text is not selectable. However if I run the same code as a desktop app, it works as expected. See screen recordings below

Affected platforms

• Web (K/Wasm) - Canvas based API

Versions

• Kotlin version*: 1.9.21
• Compose Multiplatform version*: 1.5.11
• compose-plugin: 1.6.0-alpha01

To Reproduce The following compose code reproduces the issue:

SelectionContainer {
    Text("A ISO/IEC 20248 DAID is the same as a ISO/IEC 15459 IAC and CIN concatenated as.....")
}

Expected behavior Text wrapped in a SelectionContainer should be selectable in compose web (K/Wasm).

@eymar it seems that selection container is working since 1.6.0-rc01. However as soon as I cmd+c for copying I get a crash.

See attached video:

I guess this issue is fixed then, even though the copy functionality is not working. Should we close this issue then? Is there another issue that represents copy crash problem?

@Phaestion Thanks for more details! TBH we didn't explicitly work on this issue yet. I guess it was "fixed" indirectly by some other change. The new crash is clear. Let's keep the issue open until it's fixed completely.

I reopened it for now. ~~There is a new issue with SelectionContainer: https://github.com/JetBrains/compose-multiplatform/issues/1450 (so perhaps something was unintentionaly changed)~~

Closing it as fixed :) We added the tests
