How to load Image from drawable in Jetpack compose?

Question

I have tried below code but it reflects nothing in the UI, I'm missing anything here?

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity() {      override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?) {         super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)         setContent {             loadUi()         }     }      @Composable     fun loadUi() {         CraneWrapper {             MaterialTheme {                 Image(                     (ResourcesCompat.getDrawable(                         resources,                         R.mipmap.ic_launcher,                         null                     ) as BitmapDrawable).bitmap                 )             }         }     } } 

Answer 1

You can use the painterResource function:

 Image(painterResource(R.drawable.ic_xxxx),"content description") 

The resources with the given id must point to either fully rasterized images (ex. PNG or JPG files) or VectorDrawable xml assets.
It means that this method can load either an instance of BitmapPainter or VectorPainter for ImageBitmap based assets or vector based assets respectively.

Example:

Card(     modifier = Modifier.size(48.dp).tag("circle"),     shape = CircleShape,     elevation = 2.dp ) {     Image(         painterResource(R.drawable.ic_xxxx),         contentDescription = "",         contentScale = ContentScale.Crop,         modifier = Modifier.fillMaxSize()     ) } 

Answer 2

Starting at version 1.0.0-beta01:

Image(     painter = painterResource(R.drawable.your_drawable),     contentDescription = "Content description for visually impaired" )
