Functions

Modifier.absolutePadding

Cmn 
fun Modifier.absolutePadding(
    left: Dp = 0.dp,
    top: Dp = 0.dp,
    right: Dp = 0.dp,
    bottom: Dp = 0.dp
): Modifier

Apply additional space along each edge of the content in Dp: left, top, right and bottom. These paddings are applied without regard to the current LayoutDirection, see padding to apply relative paddings. Padding is applied before content measurement and takes precedence; content may only be as large as the remaining space.

Negative padding is not permitted — it will cause IllegalArgumentException. See Modifier.offset.

            .size(50.dp)
