absolutePadding

fun Modifier.absolutePadding(left: Dp = 0.dp, top: Dp = 0.dp, right: Dp = 0.dp, bottom: Dp = 0.dp) =
    this then
        (PaddingElement(
            start = left,
            top = top,
            end = right,
            bottom = bottom,
            rtlAware = false,
            inspectorInfo = {
                name = "absolutePadding"
                properties["left"] = left
                properties["top"] = top
                properties["right"] = right
                properties["bottom"] = bottom
            },
        ))

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.
