Is there a composable/modifier that would scale a composable to fit (or preferably fill) in the available space? (something like FittedBox from Flutter)

Box(propagateMinConstraints = true) {}

Modifier.weight(1f) could also work

We are talking about forcing the children of a layout to fill max size from the parent size (i.e. without applying modifiers to children). If you can use modifiers on children, why don’t you use Modifier.fillMaxSize()?

propagateMinConstraints and fillMaxSize doesn’t really work for me

In my case, I would like to scale the view down to fit the container. So let’s assume the composable is just a Column() with an image and some text below it, depending on the text value and font size (which can vary a lot with accessibility settings) this view can grow significantly. In case it get’s bigger than the container, I would like it to automatically scale down (adjusting just the text size is not ok as I would like to keep proper ratio between an image size and the text size).

Anyway I think I’m able to achieve it with

.aspectRatio(ratio)
.wrapContentHeight(unbounded = true)
.scale(scaleValue)

where proper scaleValue I can calculate based on the container size and my view size
