Use Graphics Layer Api to capture bitmap

When using capturable with the SharedElementTransition API, the app crashes when trying to capture a thumbnail. However, the good news is that using the graphicsLayer API to capture a bitmap works correctly.

Refer to the official documentation for more details.

Implementation:

val coroutineScope = rememberCoroutineScope()
val graphicsLayer = rememberGraphicsLayer()

Box(
    modifier = Modifier
        .drawWithContent {
            // Capture the content in the graphics layer
            graphicsLayer.record {
                // Draw the contents of the composable into the graphics layer
                this@drawWithContent.drawContent()
            }
            // Draw the graphics layer on the visible canvas
            drawLayer(graphicsLayer)
        }
        .clickable {
            coroutineScope.launch {
                val bitmap = graphicsLayer.toImageBitmap()
                // Handle the captured bitmap
            }
        }
        .background(Color.White)
) {
    Text("Hello Android", fontSize = 26.sp)
}

Summary: The crash occurs because software rendering doesn't support drawRenderNode. Switching to the graphicsLayer API resolves this issue and allows capturing bitmaps correctly.
