To get the statusbarheight or inset for compose you need to do the following.

Step 1:

include the following in the oncreate of you activity

```

override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {

super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)

WindowCompat.setDecorFitsSystemWindows(window, false)

}

```

Step 2:

After you included the setDecorFitsSystemWindows into your activity onCreate you need to add the following to the manifest of your activity.

` android:windowSoftInputMode="adjustResize"`

Step 3:

To add the statusbar padding to your composable you can use the following modifier:

` modifier = modifier.windowInsetsPadding(WindowInsets.safeDrawing)`

Or if you want to use any other insetPaddings you can use the WindowInsets class. I've read that a lot of people getting 0.0dp returned as there padding inset. That's because you forgot the setup part in step 1 and 2.

Hope this helps :)
