SyntaxHighlightedText
Renders code as syntax-highlighted Material3 Text using the parser and highlight query carried by language.
When SyntaxTheme.background is non-null, it is painted behind the text. Layering, from outside to inside, is modifier → background → contentPadding → text — so modifier's padding sits outside the background, while contentPadding insets the text within the background. Disable the background by passing theme.copy(background = null).
Parameters
Padding applied between the background and the text. Defaults to no inset; pass e.g. PaddingValues(16.dp) for a typical code-block look.
Maps tree-sitter capture names to text styles. Defaults to the value provided by LocalSyntaxTheme (which itself defaults to SyntaxTheme.DarkDefault).
Base TextStyle for the rendered text. Defaults to the ambient androidx.compose.material3.LocalTextStyle forced to FontFamily.Monospace.
When true (the default), the rendered text is wrapped in a SelectionContainer so users can highlight the code with the platform's native text-selection UI (which also surfaces a Copy action). Pass false to render without a selection scope.
When false (the default), code is highlighted synchronously on the calling thread inside the composition. When true, the highlight runs on asyncContext and the rendered text starts as plain code styled with theme.baseStyle, switching to the highlighted form once the computation finishes. Use for code blocks larger than a few hundred lines (see README "Large inputs"); the default is right for typical inline code.
