When using a LazyColumn we got access to contentPadding which is super convenient to do smth like this LazyColumn(contentPadding = WindowInsets.safeDrawing.asPaddingValues()).
However when working with something that does not provide this convenient contentPadding parameter, one has to do something like this instead

Column(Modifier.windowInsetsPadding(WindowInsets.safeDrawing.only(WindowInsetsSides.Horizontal)).verticalScroll(rememberScrollState())) {
  Spacer(Modifier.windowInsetsPadding(WindowInsets.safeDrawing.only(<http://WindowInsetsSides.Top|WindowInsetsSides.Top>)))
  Stuff()
  Spacer(Modifier.windowInsetsPadding(WindowInsets.safeDrawing.only(WindowInsetsSides.Bottom)))
}

Is this simply the way to go or am I missing some API?

Modifier order matters so you can just use Column(Modifier.verticalScroll().safeDrawingPadding()).

Modifier ordering is still something that trips me up sometimes 😅
Thanks a lot, this is exactly what I was trying to go for!
Had to change safeDrawingPadding with .windowInsetsPadding(WindowInsets.safeDrawing.only(WindowInsetsSides.Horizontal + WindowInsetsSides.Bottom)) since I had a TopAppBar above which was handling the top insets and it now looks exactly how I wanted it to 👌
Thanks a lot!

Am I missing something? I'm still using accompanist insets, but I just use modifier.statusBarPadding on top and navigationBarPadding for the bottom.

[Stylianos Gakis]

How does that work for you when you rotate the screen and the status bars are navigation bar is now on the left/right?

[Colton Idle]

status bars on the left/right? I don't think I've ever seen that.

[Stylianos Gakis]

I meant navigation bar 🙈

[Colton Idle]

Oh. Hm. I guess I've never taken that into account. TIL!

Try you app in landscape and specifically the 3 button navigation (because it's much thicker than the gesture navigation) if you're not handling this at all, you'll probably figure out some things are not clickable at all, some text may be ineligible and/or in general the UI might look super ugly.
