ListHeader

Android

Component in Wear Material 3 Compose

A slot based composable for creating a list header item. [ListHeader]s are typically expected to be a few words of text on a single line. The contents will be start and end padded.

ListHeader scales itself appropriately when used within the scope of a [TransformingLazyColumn].
