I'm in trouble ! How in the hell do I load a Bitmap from resources ? NOTE: Bitmap, NOT BitmapDrawable !
Because we only have that option in the constructor of a BitmapShader, which IS A Shader (derives from Shader), not a Bitmap ! On another note, We can NOT get the Bitmap from BitmapDrawable, there isn't a single method to return the Bitmap. Bitmap class per se, only has methods to create Bitmaps from buffers and similar stuff (createBitmap(...) methods). So how can we load a Bitmap from a Resource ? Has anyone succeeded in using Shaders ? Do they Work ? And what about ComposeShader ?
