Extension functions

composed

Cmn 
fun Modifier.composed(
    inspectorInfo: InspectorInfo.() -> Unit = NoInspectorInfo,
    factory: @Composable Modifier.() -> Modifier
): Modifier

Declare a just-in-time composition of a Modifier that will be composed for each element it modifies. composed may be used to implement stateful modifiers that have instance-specific state for each modified element, allowing the same Modifier instance to be safely reused for multiple elements while maintaining element-specific state.

If inspectorInfo is specified this modifier will be visible to tools during development. Specify the name and arguments of the original modifier.

Example usage:

import androidx.compose.ui.Modifier
import androidx.compose.ui.composed
import androidx.compose.ui.graphics.Color
import androidx.compose.ui.platform.debugInspectorInfo

// let's create your own custom stateful modifier
fun Modifier.myColorModifier(color: Color) =

        inspectorInfo =

                name = "myColorModifier"
                // specify a single argument as the value when the argument name is irrelevant
                value = color
            },
        // pass your modifier implementation that resolved per modified element
        factory = {

Declare a just-in-time composition of a Modifier that will be composed for each element it modifies. composed may be used to implement stateful modifiers that have instance-specific state for each modified element, allowing the same Modifier instance to be safely reused for multiple elements while maintaining element-specific state.

When keys are provided, composed produces a Modifier that will compare equals to another modifier constructed with the same keys in order to take advantage of caching and skipping optimizations. fullyQualifiedName should be the fully-qualified import name for your modifier factory function, e.g. com.example.myapp.ui.fancyPadding.

materialize

Cmn 
fun Composer.materialize(modifier: Modifier): Modifier

Materialize any instance-specific composed modifiers for applying to a raw tree node. Call right before setting the returned modifier on an emitted node. You almost certainly do not need to call this function directly.

sensitiveContent

Cmn 
fun Modifier.sensitiveContent(isContentSensitive: Boolean = true): Modifier

This modifier hints that the composable renders sensitive content (i.e. username, password, credit card etc) on the screen, and the content should be protected during screen share in supported environments.

Parameters
isContentSensitive: Boolean = true

whether the content is sensitive or not. Defaults to true.

zIndex

Cmn 
fun Modifier.zIndex(zIndex: Float): Modifier

Creates a modifier that controls the drawing order for the children of the same layout parent. A child with larger zIndex will be drawn on top of all the children with smaller zIndex. When children have the same zIndex the original order in which the parent placed the children is used.

Note that if there would be multiple zIndex modifiers applied for the same layout the sum of their values will be used as the final zIndex. If no zIndex were applied for the layout then the default zIndex is 0.

import androidx.compose.foundation.layout.Box
import androidx.compose.material.Text
import androidx.compose.ui.Modifier
import androidx.compose.ui.zIndex

Box {

}
