fun DrawScope.drawLayer(graphicsLayer: GraphicsLayer): Unit

Draw the provided GraphicsLayer into the current DrawScope. The GraphicsLayer provided must have GraphicsLayer.record invoked on it otherwise no visual output will be seen in the rendered result.

setOutline

Cmn 
fun GraphicsLayer.setOutline(outline: Outline): Unit

Configures an outline for this GraphicsLayer based on the provided Outline object.

When GraphicsLayer.shadowElevation is non-zero a shadow is produced using a provided Outline. Additionally if GraphicsLayer.clip is true, the contents of this GraphicsLayer will be clipped to this geometry.

Parameters
outline: Outline

an Outline to apply for the layer.
