ModalBottomSheet

Common
Android

Component in Material 3 Compose

Modal bottom sheets are used as an alternative to inline menus or simple dialogs on mobile, especially when offering a long list of action items, or when items require longer descriptions and icons. Like dialogs, modal bottom sheets appear in front of app content, disabling all other app functionality when they appear, and remaining on screen until confirmed, dismissed, or a required action has been taken.

Parameters

namedescription
onDismissRequestExecutes when the user clicks outside of the bottom sheet, after sheet animates to [Hidden].
modifierOptional [Modifier] for the bottom sheet.
sheetStateThe state of the bottom sheet.
sheetMaxWidth[Dp] that defines what the maximum width the sheet will take. Pass in [Dp.Unspecified] for a sheet that spans the entire screen width.
sheetGesturesEnabledWhether the bottom sheet can be interacted with by gestures.
shapeThe shape of the bottom sheet.
containerColorThe color used for the background of this bottom sheet
contentColorThe preferred color for content inside this bottom sheet. Defaults to either the matching content color for [containerColor], or to the current [LocalContentColor] if [containerColor] is not a color from the theme.
tonalElevationwhen [containerColor] is [ColorScheme.surface], a translucent primary color overlay is applied on top of the container. A higher tonal elevation value will result in a darker color in light theme and lighter color in dark theme. See also: [Surface].
scrimColorColor of the scrim that obscures content when the bottom sheet is open.
dragHandleOptional visual marker to swipe the bottom sheet.
contentWindowInsetswindow insets to be passed to the bottom sheet content via [PaddingValues] params.
properties[ModalBottomSheetProperties] for further customization of this modal bottom sheet's window behavior.
contentThe content to be displayed inside the bottom sheet.
