The ComposeFadingEdges comes with multiple Modifiers: Modifier.horizontalFadingEdges(...)
, Modifier.verticalFadingEdges(...), etc.
For more technical and detailed documentation, read the library KDoc.
Fading Edges Modifiers
The fading edges Modifiers are available for different content orientation and type.
| Param | Description |
|---|---|
orientation |
The fading edges orientation: Horizontal or Vertical. |
gravity |
The fading edges gravity: All, Start, or End. |
length |
The fading edges length. |
contentType |
The FadingEdgesContentType. |
fillType |
The FadingEdgesFillType. |
In case, contentType is not provided, the FadingEdgesContentType equals to Static.
The ComposeFadingEdges also provides fading edges for text marquee.
FadingEdgesContentType
The FadingEdgesContentType can be Static or Dynamic.
The Dynamic content sub-type can be the following:
Scroll: The dynamic fading edges for aScrollStatecontent.Lazy.List: The dynamic fading edges for aLazyListStatecontent.Lazy.Grid: The dynamic fading edges for aLazyGridStatecontent.Lazy.StaggeredGrid: The dynamic fading edges for aLazyStaggeredGridStatecontent.
The Dynamic content type requires FadingEdgesScrollConfig.
FadingEdgesScrollConfig
The FadingEdgesScrollConfig can be Dynamic, Full or Static.
All of them can configure fading edges scroll based offset animationSpec.
The Dynamic configuration comes with additional params:
| Param | Description |
|---|---|
isLerpByDifferenceForPartialContent |
Determines whether the fading edges should interpolate their scroll offset length for partial content. |
scrollFactor |
The fading edges scroll factor. |
FadingEdgesFillType
The FadingEdgesFillType can be FadeClip or FadeColor.
The fading edges fill gradient is automatically faded from max alpha to min alpha.
All of them can configure fading edges fill gradient fillStops and secondStopAlpha.
The FadeClip type clips the content with the fading edges fill gradient.
The FadeColor type requires a color param and draws the fading edges fill gradient over the content.
Modifier.marqueeHorizontalFadingEdges
The utility Modifier to add fading edges to the text marquee (custom or default basicMarquee).
This Modifier comes with common fading edges params and a few additional params:
| Param | Description |
