Hello, Is it possible with navigation to achieve this? I’m using the accompanist bottom sheet to create a nested graph. The first route I open in the bottom sheet, and I want all subsequent routes to open as normal screens inside the bottom sheet.

Basically want that from screen A navigate to screen B while sheet is still open

@Ian Lake maybe if can help?

"normal screens inside the bottom sheet" sounds like you need a second NavHost within the bottom sheet destination that would only replace the contents of the bottom sheet

Sorry to necro this, but according to the `BottomSheetNavigator`’s docs this should automatically happen when navigating from one BottomSheetNavigator.Destination to another BottomSheetNavigator.Destination . And it’s indeed happening, but it will collapse and expand the bottom sheet again. Is there any way to prevent that behaviour?

Also, I thought that having several `NavHost`s was not recommended, am I wrong?

I was thinking about implementing a custom Navigator to avoid having more than one NavHost.

Each bottom sheet navigator destination is a new bottom sheet, so what you see is expected there

[Ian Lake]

There's nothing wrong with having multiple NavHosts, it is just rarely the right choice. Remember a NavHost is just a Box that it's contents fill - if you want a Box of contents with a back stack inside a bottom sheet, there's no reason to write anything other than exactly that

Ok! 👍 Thanks for that.
I was afraid that it would make the navigation harder to manage (deep linking, for example).
I’ll try that solution, thanks, mate.
