I'm struggling to draw a Painter to a Bitmap. The confusing thing is that the docs for painter say

In addition to providing the ability to draw into a specified bounded area, Painter provides a few high level mechanisms that consumers can use to configure how the content is drawn.

However, the entire public api is just the property intrinsicSize and the extension function DrawScope.draw. Confusingly draw doesn't take the painter as an argument, so I'm not sure how it could work.

This is as far as I got:

val painter = painterResource(R.drawable.marker)
    val size = painter.intrinsicSize
    val image = ImageBitmap(size.width.roundToInt(), size.height.roundToInt())
    val canvas = Canvas(image)
    CanvasDrawScope().draw(LocalDensity.current, LocalLayoutDirection.current, canvas, size) {
    }

the draw method on Painter is an extension method on DrawScope so you would do the following in your CanvasDrawScope usage:

CanvasDrawScope().draw(LocalDensity.current, LocalLayoutDirection.current, canvas, size) {
        with(painter) {
            draw(size) // using default alpha and no colorfilter tinting
        }

Oh,/hits head/, I forgot about with. Sorry to waste your time.

No problem. I always end up forgetting using with to determine the proper scoping as well.
