```kotlin
@ExperimentalMaterial3AdaptiveApi
interface PaneScaffoldScope
```


Scope for the panes of pane scaffolds.


## Functions

```kotlin
fun Modifier.preferredWidth(width: Dp): Modifier
```


This modifier specifies the preferred width for a pane, and the pane scaffold implementation
will respect this width whenever possible. In case the modifier is not set or set to
`Dp.Unspecified`, the default preferred widths of the respective scaffold implementation will
be used.
