Is there a performant way to determine the height of the tallest eight in a LazyRow? I would like to force all child items to use the same height (tallest) so that when horizontally scrolling you don’t see disjointed item heights.

If you could know _anything_ about all items in a lazy list then it wouldn't be lazy.

I figured that was the case. I get strange request from designers and I need to do my due diligence.

This has been asked before as well. You might be able to just go with a non-lazy horizontal pager implementation by Albert there

FWIW, the non-lazy approach is what we've been doing.

Did you use a solution like Albert's here, or is there some other way to do this nowadays?

We just ran with a `Row(Modifier.horizontalScroll().height(IntrinsicSize.Min)`, essentially. Nothing more fancy than that.

Oh, sorry, I missed the detail about snapping.

I don't think it was explicitly mentioned here, but it's often what people want when they ask for "horizontal pager, but also know the max height".
If anything, I was the one missing details here as OP never mentioned pagers :sweat_smile: My brain just connected some dots that were not here in the first place :smile:

My use case doesn't need pagers so the snapping behavior isn't necessary. I believe I could get away using a Row with a horizontal scroll modifier.

If you were using HorizontalPager, there's a `beyondBoundsPageCount` you can use which makes it non lazy (ish).  I don't think there's any way to do this with a LazyRow or LazyColumn.   HorizontalPager has it's own internal measurement policy that's passed off to the LazyLayout function that is capable of forcing you into rendering a specific amount of items up front.  But again, this is all internal to HorizontalPager and you won't be able to easily use this with something else.
