ModalWideNavigationRail

Component in Material 3 Compose

Material design modal wide navigation rail.

Wide navigation rails provide access to primary destinations in apps when using tablet and desktop screens.

The modal wide navigation rail should be used to display multiple [WideNavigationRailItem]s, each representing a singular app destination, and, optionally, a header containing a menu button, a [FloatingActionButton], and/or a logo. Each destination is typically represented by an icon and a text label.

Parameters

name	description
scrimOnClick	executes when the scrim is clicked. Usually it should be a function that instructs the rail to collapse
modifier	the [Modifier] to be applied to this wide navigation rail
expanded	whether this wide navigation rail is expanded or collapsed (default).
collapsedShape	the shape of this wide navigation rail's container when it's collapsed.
expandedShape	the shape of this wide navigation rail's container when it's [expanded]
colors	[WideNavigationRailColors] that will be used to resolve the colors used for this wide navigation rail. See [WideNavigationRailDefaults.colors]
header	optional header that may hold a [FloatingActionButton] or a logo
expandedHeaderTopPadding	the padding to be applied to the top of the rail. It's usually needed in order to align the content of the rail between the collapsed and expanded animation
windowInsets	a window insets of the wide navigation rail
arrangement	the [WideNavigationRailArrangement] of this wide navigation rail
expandedProperties	[ModalWideNavigationRailProperties] for further customization of the expanded modal wide navigation rail's window behavior
content	the content of this modal wide navigation rail, usually [WideNavigationRailItem]s
