Usage sample

AutoSizeText has all the properties that original Text has plus additional properties:

• minFontSize - specifies min value for font size. If min value reached but text still overflows, overflow parameter will be used. If minFontSize is not specified, the text size will scale down until fit the borders and overflow param will be ignored.
• keepLineHeight - specifies line height changes. Default value false means that line height will be changed in aspect ratio to the default fontSize and lineHeight. true means that provided lineHeight will be unchanged.

Also remember that AutoSizeText will not have effect if text has no borders (wraps the content).

For reach the autosizing effect, uou can strict the maxLines param

AutoSizeText(
  text = longText,
  maxLines = 2,
  fontSize = 14.sp,
  lineHeight = 16.sp,
  minFontSize = 12.sp
)

or set the height for the modifier.

AutoSizeText(
    modifier = Modifier.height(60.dp),
    text = longText,
    fontSize = 40.sp,
    lineHeight = 42.sp,
    keepLineHeight = true,
    overflow = TextOverflow.Ellipsis,
)
Box(modifier = Modifier.height(40.dp)) {
    AutoSizeText(
        text = longText,
        fontSize = 40.sp,
        lineHeight = 42.sp,
        keepLineHeight = false,
    )
}
