Parameters
name | description |
---|---|
state | the state of the search bar. This state should also be passed to the [inputField] and the expanded search bar. |
inputField | the input field of this search bar that allows entering a query, typically a [SearchBarDefaults.InputField]. |
modifier | the [Modifier] to be applied to this search bar when collapsed. |
shape | the shape of this search bar when collapsed. |
colors | [SearchBarColors] that will be used to resolve the colors used for this search bar in different states. See [SearchBarDefaults.colors]. |
tonalElevation | when [SearchBarColors.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]. |
shadowElevation | the elevation for the shadow below this search bar. |

Parameters
name | description |
---|---|
inputField | the input field of this search bar that allows entering a query, typically a [SearchBarDefaults.InputField]. |
expanded | whether this search bar is expanded and showing search results. |
onExpandedChange | the callback to be invoked when this search bar's expanded state is changed. |
modifier | the [Modifier] to be applied to this search bar. |
shape | the shape of this search bar when it is not [expanded]. When [expanded], the shape will always be [SearchBarDefaults.fullScreenShape]. |

tonalElevation | when [SearchBarColors.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]. |
shadowElevation | the elevation for the shadow below this search bar |
windowInsets | the window insets that this search bar will respect |
content | the content of this search bar to display search results below the [inputField]. |
