Then you're trading off battery life vs. space. Vector graphics can be far more expensive to render than bitmaps.
- lcnmrn 9y agoWhy vectors can't be pre-rendered and cached?
- whowouldathunk 9y agoThat's what a bitmap asset is.
- marcosdumay 9y agoExcept that a cache is disposable, and disposed often in practice.
- filleokus 9y agoIs it possible maybe to render out the vector graphics once (on the device) and then have them pre-rendered (cached) until they change? I guess it would add considerable overhead for a negligible improvement in size (compared to just shipping all images) for most devices. EDIT: Too slow...
