[android-developers] Re: Can I decide how bitmaps are compressed via png?

Eventually I figured out the answer myself: in Android it's not possible.
I had to make changes to the Android frameworks to enable this feature (skia for that matter:
you may look at https://github.com/androidcompile/Android_external_skia_pngCompression), but otherwise, as a developer, there's no access to these features.
Developers may only use an external library in order to save a png in a color paletted format.

Hi,
Is it possible to determine that a bitmap is compressed (programatically, of course) as a png image with an 8 bit color palette? 4 bit?
I know there are different types of png compressions, can I decide which type is used?
If the answer is no, can anyone recommend a method for doing so?

Thank you in advance
