I am trying to make something that uses the same concept as the image below;

An image like background with text overlaying it.

I tried to make a card and give it a backgroundColor of the image, but I got an error;

What I want to do is overlay some texts on an image, like the image above.

So please how do I arrange this code. I need everything to be in a single composable because I need to populate it.

Thanks for your understanding and assistance, In advance.

Please, I'd happily provide any more info needed.

Use a Box to overlay composables.

Something like:

@Composable
fun ImageAndText(
    modifier: Modifier = Modifier,
    painter: Painter,
    contentDescription: String,
    text: String 
) {
    val shape =  RoundedCornerShape(8.dp)
    val height = 100.dp
    Box(
        modifier = modifier
            .height(height)
            .fillMaxWidth()
            .background(White, shape = shape),
        contentAlignment = Alignment.Center
    ) {
        Image(
            painter = painter,
            contentDescription = contentDescription,
            contentScale = ContentScale.Crop,
            modifier = Modifier
                .fillMaxSize()
                .clip(shape)
        )

        Text(
            text = text, 
            color = White
        )

    }
}

You can use Box as a direct Child of your Card and put the Image and Text in it and set its contentAlignment to Alignment.Center.

Use the Image composable to host your desired image instead of card's backgroundColor since it only accepts Color.

@Composable
fun ImageWithTextInMiddle() {
    Card {
        Box(
            modifier = Modifier
                .height(100.dp)
                .fillMaxWidth(),
            contentAlignment = Alignment.Center
        ) {
            Image(
                // painterResource(successInfo.successInfoImageId)
                painterResource(R.drawable.img),
                contentDescription = "",
                contentScale = ContentScale.Crop,
                modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize()
            )

            // will display in the middle of the image
            Text("Some Text In the middle")
        }
    }
}
