Is this sort of effect (first time load, slide from bottom) available in compose Column or LazyColumn (column would be preferred for my particular situation, but open to suggestions).

I think

AnimatedVisibility

should work. Just specify a delay according to the index.

Didn't know that you could delay an animatedVisibility but I will give it a whirl! also... i thought you needed a visibile boolean... but since i just want this on first launch, maybe I can just always pass in true?

AnimatedVisibility

only animates visibility changes so passing true won’t work. However you can use the overload that takes a `MutableTransitionState`:

AnimatedVisibility(
    visibleState = remember {
        MutableTransitionState(initialState = false).apply { targetState = true }
    }
)

I just finished implementing a similar animation (Compose version on the right emulator): https://imgur.com/a/BtUU2Qx implementation: https://github.com/leinardi/FloatingActionButtonSpeedDial/blob/58e90092771df056b46eeae2111656ba3e6121d9/library-compose/src/main/kotlin/com/leinardi/android/speeddial/compose/SpeedDial.kt#L93

I do exactly this in the Shrine sample:

ive definitely seen that video too but my brain is overloaded with all the recent IO videos lol

Code is here on line 242: https://github.com/c5inco/Shrine-Compose-Stream/blob/main/app/src/main/java/com/example/shrinecompose/Backdrop.kt

unfortunately, i couldn't get this to look quite right. quitting on it for now, but will have to come back to it!

Let me know if you need help! Basically what you do is set the exit/enter params to None on the AnimatedVisibility itself, then loop through a Composable within it in a Column/Row with the modifier

animateEnterExit

which allows you to specify the animation per item

Alright. Somehow that sounds easy. I'll try again once I'm back home next week. 🤞
