11/30/2020, 4:27 PMI'm doing some crazy stuff 😅 I've FragmentContainerView inside a composable which has its own navigationGraph. I've navigation-compose implemented at the root whose on navigation leads to the Composable I hosting FragmentContainerView.
Now when I navigate on this Composable using "next" button and press back, it completely ignores the current navController and conforms to the root navigation instead. I need a way to link both of these navigation graphs so that they're navigatiom between them would be streamlined.
At the moment, if I implement this child navigation also with navigation-compose, it works fine.

It's difficult for me to implement top level navigation using fragments. I've implemented a variant of BottomNavigationView using compose and it's way more easier to handle navigations for that using
