Hello all, anyone know if its possible to pass a bitmap or bytearray in compose navigation? Seems like a lot of overhead to save to a file and then clean up.

You could put it in a repository and link it via synthetic ID. Upon completion of it’s usage it can be removed from the repo.

I would personally go down the route that has some extra overhead or infrastructure as opposed to trying to shove it in a system not designed for it.

besides what Eric said, bitmaps are very large and navigation arguments are saved and restored, and that large file would get you in trouble

if you cache, remember that you would need to survive process death; if you provide an ID to your destination to fetch the bitmap, you will get that same ID after process death and you would expect the bitmap to still be there
