How can I prevent doubling up of bottom bar padding with NavigationSuiteScaffold? I just have a NSS with a nested Scaffold and a LazyColumn that has a text field at the bottom of 30 other items and when the text field is focused it puts extra padding. For a regular scaffold that has a bottom bar I can consume the insets, but NSS does not provide insets and seems to consume start or bottom insets itself.

Ah, this is an issue… NSS consumes the insets, but only the insets themselves, and not the size of the navigation UI component as well

There’s a new Modifier.recalculateWindowInsets method in 1.8.0-alpha03 which can help correct for this sort of case, which you could try: https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/androidx/compose/foundation/layout/package-summary#(androidx.compose.ui.Mo[…]ecalculateWindowInsets()

Thank you!

Hopefully if you apply that to the content within the NSS, it should adjust the consumed insets accordingly to correct for the doubling up in padding

Is this issue already tracked, do you know? Or do I need to submit one
