Class
Android
```kotlin
public class PickerState(
@IntRange(from = 1) initialNumberOfOptions: Int,
@IntRange(from = 0) initiallySelectedIndex: Int = 0,
@get:Suppress("GetterSetterNames") public val shouldRepeatOptions: Boolean = true,
) : ScrollableState
```
A state object that can be hoisted to observe item selection.
In most cases, this will be created via `rememberPickerState`.
#### Parameters
| | |
| --- | --- |
| initialNumberOfOptions | the number of options. |
| initiallySelectedIndex | the index of the option to show in the center at the start, zero-based. |
| shouldRepeatOptions | if true (the default), the options will be repeated. |
## Functions
```kotlin
public suspend fun scrollToOption(index: Int)
```
Instantly scroll to an option.
#### Parameters
| | |
| --- | --- |
| index | The index of the option to scroll to. |
```kotlin
public suspend fun animateScrollToOption(index: Int)
```
Animate (smooth scroll) to the given option at `index`.
A smooth scroll always happens to the closest item if PickerState has repeatItems=true. For
example, picker values are : 0 1 2 3 0 1 2 `3` 0 1 2 3 Target value is `0`. 0 1 2 3 >0< 1 2
`3` >0< 1 2 3 Picker can be scrolled forwards or backwards. To get to the target 0 it
requires 1 step to scroll forwards and 3 steps to scroll backwards. Picker will be scrolled
forwards as this is the closest destination.
If the distance between possible targets is the same, picker will be scrolled backwards.
#### Parameters
| | |
| --- | --- |
| index | The index of the option to scroll to. |
## Companion Object
#### Properties
Android
```kotlin
public val Saver: Saver
```
