Is there an obvious way to have a LazyGrid inside a LazyColumn? I have seen some workarounds but I was wondering what the preferred way is here on Slack.

Can you describe your use case a bit?

I haven’t used LazyGrid yet, but I’m curious why you would want to put one inside a LazyColumn

Hi, I was trying to use the code for this: https://developer.android.com/reference/kotlin/androidx/compose/material3/package-summary#CenterAlignedTopAppBar(kotl[…]al3.TopAppBarScrollBehavior)

I have a LazyGrid because my app is a word game. And basically the CenterAlignedTopAppBar uses a LazyColumn.

Do all the slots for letters/words fit on the screen?

[Chris Fillmore]

Or is scrolling required? Follow up: Is the number of slots fixed

[Nat Strangerweather]

yes it all fits, I just wondered if it was possible to put it in a LazyColumn.

[Nat Strangerweather]

Take it more as me being curious.

Ok for curiousity’s sake… I don’t really know 🙂

Having said that, based on what you described, I don’t think you need LazyColumn or LazyGrid, since everything is on screen and the number of cells is presumably fixed. You can just define Row and Column
