Functions

@Composable
fun TitleCard(
    onClick: () -> Unit,
    title: @Composable RowScope.() -> Unit,
    modifier: Modifier = Modifier,
    enabled: Boolean = true,
    time: (@Composable RowScope.() -> Unit)? = null,
    backgroundPainter: Painter = CardDefaults.cardBackgroundPainter(),
    contentColor: Color = MaterialTheme.colors.onSurfaceVariant,
    titleColor: Color = MaterialTheme.colors.onSurface,

    content: @Composable ColumnScope.() -> Unit
): Unit

Opinionated Wear Material Card that offers a specific 3 slot layout to show interactive information about an application, e.g. a message. TitleCards are designed for use within an application.

The first row of the layout has two slots. 1. a start aligned title (emphasised with the titleColor and expected to be start aligned text). The title text is expected to be a maximum of 2 lines of text. 2. An optional time that the application activity has occurred shown at the end of the row, expected to be an end aligned Text composable showing a time relevant to the contents of the Card.

The rest of the Card contains the content which is expected to be Text or a contained Image.

If the content is text it can be single or multiple line and is expected to be Top and Start aligned and of type of Typography.body1.

Overall the title and content text should be no more than 5 rows of text combined.

If more than one composable is provided in the content slot it is the responsibility of the caller to determine how to layout the contents, e.g. provide either a row or a column.

Example of a TitleCard with two lines of body text:

import androidx.wear.compose.material.Text
import androidx.wear.compose.material.TitleCard

TitleCard(onClick = {}, title = { Text("TitleCard") }, time = { Text("now") }) {
    Text("Some body content")
    Text("and some more body content")
}

Example of a title card with a background image:

import androidx.compose.foundation.Image
import androidx.compose.foundation.layout.Column
import androidx.compose.foundation.layout.fillMaxSize
import androidx.compose.foundation.layout.padding
import androidx.compose.ui.Modifier
import androidx.compose.ui.res.painterResource
import androidx.compose.ui.unit.dp
import androidx.wear.compose.material.CardDefaults
import androidx.wear.compose.material.MaterialTheme
import androidx.wear.compose.material.Text
import androidx.wear.compose.material.TitleCard

TitleCard(
    onClick = { /* Do something */ },
    title = { Text("TitleCard With an ImageBackground") },
    backgroundPainter =
        CardDefaults.imageWithScrimBackgroundPainter(
            backgroundImagePainter = painterResource(id = R.drawable.backgroundimage)
        ),
    contentColor = MaterialTheme.colors.onSurface,
    titleColor = MaterialTheme.colors.onSurface,
) {
    // Apply 24.dp padding in bottom for TitleCard with an ImageBackground.
    // Already 12.dp padding exists. Ref - [CardDefaults.ContentPadding]
    Column(modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize().padding(bottom = 12.dp)) {
        Text("Text coloured to stand out on the image")
    }
}

Parameters
onClick: () -> Unit

Will be called when the user clicks the card

title: @Composable RowScope.() -> Unit

A slot for displaying the title of the card, expected to be one or two lines of text of Typography.button

modifier: Modifier = Modifier

Modifier to be applied to the card

enabled: Boolean = true

Controls the enabled state of the card. When false, this card will not be clickable and there will be no ripple effect on click. Wear cards do not have any specific elevation or alpha differences when not enabled - they are simply not clickable.

time: (@Composable RowScope.() -> Unit)? = null

An optional slot for displaying the time relevant to the contents of the card, expected to be a short piece of end aligned text.

backgroundPainter: Painter = CardDefaults.cardBackgroundPainter()

A painter used to paint the background of the card. A title card can have either a gradient background or an image background, use CardDefaults.cardBackgroundPainter() or CardDefaults.imageBackgroundPainter() to obtain an appropriate painter

contentColor: Color = MaterialTheme.colors.onSurfaceVariant

The default color to use for content() slot unless explicitly set.

titleColor: Color = MaterialTheme.colors.onSurface

The default color to use for title() slot unless explicitly set.

timeColor: Color = contentColor

The default color to use for time() slot unless explicitly set.

content: @Composable ColumnScope.() -> Unit

Slot for composable body content displayed on the Card
