): Unit

A Pager that scrolls horizontally. Pages are lazily placed in accordance to the available viewport size. By definition, pages in a Pager have the same size, defined by pageSize and use a snap animation (provided by flingBehavior to scroll pages into a specific position). You can use outOfBoundsPageCount to place more pages before and after the visible pages.

If you need snapping with pages of different size, you can use a SnapFlingBehavior with a SnapLayoutInfoProvider adapted to a LazyList.

        }
    }
}
Parameters
state: PagerState

The state to control this pager

modifier: Modifier = Modifier

A modifier instance to be applied to this Pager outer layout

contentPadding: PaddingValues = PaddingValues(0.dp)

a padding around the whole content. This will add padding for the content after it has been clipped, which is not possible via modifier param. You can use it to add a padding before the first page or after the last one. Use pageSpacing to add spacing between the pages.

pageSize: PageSize = PageSize.Fill

Use this to change how the pages will look like inside this pager.

outOfBoundsPageCount: Int = PagerDefaults.OutOfBoundsPageCount

Pages to compose and layout before and after the list of visible pages. Note: Be aware that using a large value for outOfBoundsPageCount will cause a lot of pages to be composed, measured and placed which will defeat the purpose of using lazy loading. This should be used as an optimization to pre-load a couple of pages before and after the visible ones. This does not include the pages automatically composed and laid out by the pre-fetcher in the direction of the scroll during scroll events.

pageSpacing: Dp = 0.dp

The amount of space to be used to separate the pages in this Pager

verticalAlignment: Alignment.Vertical = Alignment.CenterVertically

How pages are aligned vertically in this Pager.

flingBehavior: TargetedFlingBehavior = PagerDefaults.flingBehavior(state = state)

The TargetedFlingBehavior to be used for post scroll gestures.

userScrollEnabled: Boolean = true

whether the scrolling via the user gestures or accessibility actions is allowed. You can still scroll programmatically using PagerState.scroll even when it is disabled.

reverseLayout: Boolean = false

reverse the direction of scrolling and layout.

key: ((index: Int) -> Any)? = null

a stable and unique key representing the item. When you specify the key the scroll position will be maintained based on the key, which means if you add/remove items before the current visible item the item with the given key will be kept as the first visible one. If null is passed the position in the list will represent the key.

pageNestedScrollConnection: NestedScrollConnection = remember(state) { PagerDefaults.pageNestedScrollConnection(state, Orientation.Horizontal) }

A NestedScrollConnection that dictates how this Pager behaves with nested lists. The default behavior will see Pager to consume all nested deltas.

snapPosition: SnapPosition = SnapPosition.Start

The calculation of how this Pager will perform snapping of pages. Use this to provide different settling to different positions in the layout. This is used by Pager as a way to calculate PagerState.currentPage, currentPage is the page closest to the snap position in the layout (e.g. if the snap position is the start of the layout, then currentPage will be the page closest to that).

pageContent: @Composable PagerScope.(page: Int) -> Unit

This Pager's page Composable.
