I want to get the coordinates of an item in a lazy column when it is clicked. How can i do that?

Coordinates relative to what? The full screen or the lazyColumn itself? And if you scroll and click again, do you want different coordinates?

So i want to mimic a shared element transition when i click on the card. But due to some constraints, i cant use the actual implementation. Rather, i will place another card on top the item that is being clicked and expand that card.
For this, i need the coordinates of the item that is clicked relative to the screen

You can add a `Modifier.onPlaced {}` on your composable. In there you get a `LayoutCoordinates` and you can try doing
```positionInRoot()
positionInWindow()
positionOnScreen()```
On it to get some coordinates.
Play around with it, perhaps one of them will be what you are looking for.
You can then store that value in a local mutableState, which you read inside the onClick
