Functions

Modifier.scrollable

fun Modifier.scrollable(
    state: ScrollableState,
    orientation: Orientation,
    enabled: Boolean = true,
    reverseDirection: Boolean = false,
    flingBehavior: FlingBehavior? = null,
    interactionSource: MutableInteractionSource? = null
): Modifier

Configure touch scrolling and flinging for the UI element in a single Orientation.

Users should update their state themselves using default ScrollableState and its consumeScrollDelta callback or by implementing ScrollableState interface manually and reflect their own state in UI when using this component.

scrollable is a low level modifier that handles low level scrolling input gestures, without other behaviors commonly used for scrollable containers. For building scrollable containers, see androidx.compose.foundation.scrollableArea. scrollableArea clips its content to its bounds, renders overscroll, and adjusts the direction of scroll gestures to ensure that the content moves with the user's gestures. See also androidx.compose.foundation.verticalScroll and androidx.compose.foundation.horizontalScroll for high level scrollable containers that handle layout and move the content as the user scrolls.

If you don't need to have fling or nested scroll support, but want to make component simply draggable, consider using draggable.

Parameters
state: ScrollableState

ScrollableState state of the scrollable. Defines how scroll events will be interpreted by the user land logic and contains useful information about on-going events.

orientation: Orientation

orientation of the scrolling

enabled: Boolean = true

whether or not scrolling in enabled

reverseDirection: Boolean = false

reverse the direction of the scroll, so top to bottom scroll will behave like bottom to top and left to right will behave like right to left.

flingBehavior: FlingBehavior? = null

logic describing fling behavior when drag has finished with velocity. If null, default from ScrollableDefaults.flingBehavior will be used.

interactionSource: MutableInteractionSource? = null

MutableInteractionSource that will be used to emit drag events when this scrollable is being dragged.

Modifier.scrollable

    state: ScrollableState,
    orientation: Orientation,
    overscrollEffect: OverscrollEffect?,
    enabled: Boolean = true,
    reverseDirection: Boolean = false,
    flingBehavior: FlingBehavior? = null,
    interactionSource: MutableInteractionSource? = null,
    bringIntoViewSpec: BringIntoViewSpec? = null
): Modifier

Configure touch scrolling and flinging for the UI element in a single Orientation.

scrollable is a low level modifier that handles low level scrolling input gestures, without other behaviors commonly used for scrollable containers. For building scrollable containers, see androidx.compose.foundation.scrollableArea. scrollableArea clips its content to its bounds, renders overscroll, and adjusts the direction of scroll gestures to ensure that the content moves with the user's gestures. See also androidx.compose.foundation.verticalScroll and androidx.compose.foundation.horizontalScroll for high level scrollable containers that handle layout and move the content as the user scrolls.

If you don't need to have fling or nested scroll support, but want to make component simply draggable, consider using draggable.

This overload provides the access to OverscrollEffect that defines the behaviour of the over scrolling logic. Use androidx.compose.foundation.rememberOverscrollEffect to create an instance of the current provided overscroll implementation. Note: compared to other APIs that accept overscrollEffect such as scrollableArea and verticalScroll, scrollable does not render the overscroll, it only provides events. Manually add androidx.compose.foundation.overscroll to render the overscroll or use other APIs.

Parameters
state: ScrollableState

ScrollableState state of the scrollable. Defines how scroll events will be interpreted by the user land logic and contains useful information about on-going events.

orientation: Orientation

orientation of the scrolling

overscrollEffect: OverscrollEffect?

effect to which the deltas will be fed when the scrollable have some scrolling delta left. Pass null for no overscroll. If you pass an effect you should also apply androidx.compose.foundation.overscroll modifier.

enabled: Boolean = true

whether or not scrolling in enabled

reverseDirection: Boolean = false

reverse the direction of the scroll, so top to bottom scroll will behave like bottom to top and left to right will behave like right to left.

flingBehavior: FlingBehavior? = null

logic describing fling behavior when drag has finished with velocity. If null, default from ScrollableDefaults.flingBehavior will be used.

interactionSource: MutableInteractionSource? = null

MutableInteractionSource that will be used to emit drag events when this scrollable is being dragged.

bringIntoViewSpec: BringIntoViewSpec? = null

The configuration that this scrollable should use to perform scrolling when scroll requests are received from the focus system. If null is provided the system will use the behavior provided by LocalBringIntoViewSpec which by default has a platform dependent implementation.
