Does this answer still hold true? "What's the purpose of paddingvalues in a scaffold?" https://stackoverflow.com/a/70210638

it seems so :

```val bodyContentPlaceables = subcompose(ScaffoldLayoutContent.MainContent) {

val innerPadding = PaddingValues(bottom = bottomBarHeight.toDp())

content(innerPadding)

}.fastMap { it.measure(looseConstraints.copy(maxHeight = bodyContentHeight)) }```

from Scaffold.kt with 1.2.0-alpha06

Just want to call out that this behavior has now changed for

material3

Scaffold

specifically. https://developer.android.com/jetpack/androidx/releases/compose-material3#1.0.0-alpha10 For

material3

’s

Scaffold

, the top bar is now included in the inner padding. As a consequence, there will be no need for an

accompanist/insets-ui

version of `material3`’s

Scaffold

for the use case of a translucent top app bar where you want to display content behind the top app bar. The behavior for

material

Scaffold

is unchanged, so that behavior is still accurate.

Oooh. very nice! I think that might be enough of a reason for me to try m3. 😄
