👋Hello! I’m new to Jetpack Compose and I’m currently struggling with an issue related to LazyColumn. I was hoping someone here might have a tip.

Summary: I’d like to create a LazyColumn where new items are appended to the bottom of the list. When a new item is added, the entire list should slide-up in unison to accommodate it. I’ve created a basic example with animateScrollToItem in a LaunchedEffect where the intended experience almost works, with one issue: the slide-up animation only occurs after the list fills up its available real estate. I think this makes sense because there is nothing to scroll to until the list is filled-up.

I’m able to remedy the problem by simply prepending a large empty Box as the first item of my LazyColumn, but this felt a bit odd. Any suggestions are welcome—thank you!

Maybe you can try animateContentSize in the LazyColumn

Hi @Gumiku. I no longer have access to my code since it was for a job I’ve since left. I believe my sample snippet I originally posted + animateContentSize is pretty close to what I demoed. Sorry I can’t be of more help.
