Jetpack Compose Fill remaining space in Row

Question

I have a Row with max width, I want to place a Icon at start then a text and then another Icon at end. I have specific sizes of icon and I want the Text to fill up the remaining space.

Row( Modifier .fillMaxWidth() .height(30.dp) ){ Icon(Modifier.size(20.dp)) Text() // Fill this with remaining space available Icon(Modifier.size(20.dp)) }

If I do fillMaxWidth in text then Icons goes out of the view.

How to do that?

You can apply Modifier.weight(1f) to the Text composable.

Something like:

Row( Modifier .fillMaxWidth() .height(30.dp) ){ Icon(Icons.Filled.Add,"", Modifier.size(20.dp)) Text("Text",Modifier.weight(1f)) // Fill this with remaining space available Icon(Icons.Filled.Add,"", Modifier.size(20.dp)) }

I have one more problem. i have decreased the height of TextField but the Placeholder text and input text are getting cropped. i.e. only 50% visible. how to solve it?

@DelusionaL Try to decrease the textsize

Then it's getting too small, only 8.sp is working which affects accessibility.
