June 2026 – androidx/androidx: Key feature delivered was a bug fix that normalizes labelPosition for TextField components by moving normalization upstream into composables, ensuring consistent behavior across all contexts. This reduces downstream variability, simplifies variant handling, and strengthens UI stability. Tests were added/validated for UI consistency in dialog and TextField contexts (DialogScreenshotTest and TextFieldScreenshotTest). The work is tracked by commit fe0106b14e9576c1b3030214d3cd13d34de9df1c and references Fix: 518638395 and Change-Id: I8fbf895f254af0d2efd87e40d38c8d01e4d4550a.
