Code Sample

import 'dart:io';
import 'dart:typed_data';
import 'dart:ui' as ui;
import 'package:flutter/material.dart';
import 'package:path_provider/path_provider.dart';
import 'package:share_plus/share_plus.dart';
import 'package:flutter/rendering.dart';

class SomeWidget extends StatelessWidget {
  SomeWidget({Key? key}) : super(key: key);

  final GlobalKey widgetToImageKey = GlobalKey();

  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return Scaffold(
      body: SafeArea(
        child: SingleChildScrollView(
          child: RepaintBoundary(
            key: widgetToImageKey,
            child: Column(children: [
              const SizedBox(height: 100),
              const Text("Some Text"),
              ElevatedButton(onPressed: takePictureAndShare, child: const Text("Take Photo and share")),
            ]),
          ),
        ),
      ),
    );
  }

  Future<void> takePictureAndShare() async {
    RenderRepaintBoundary boundary = widgetToImageKey.currentContext!.findRenderObject() as RenderRepaintBoundary;
    ui.Image image = await boundary.toImage();
    final directory = (await getTemporaryDirectory()).path;
    ByteData? byteData = await image.toByteData(format: ui.ImageByteFormat.png);
    Uint8List pngBytes = byteData!.buffer.asUint8List();
    File imgFile = File('$directory/invoice.png');
    await imgFile.writeAsBytes(pngBytes);
    await Share.shareFiles(
      [imgFile.path],
      mimeTypes: ['image/*'],
    );
  }

To confirm, this worked back in 4.0.3, correct?

Sorry, i did not put it right, i does not work either on 4.0.3

In 4.0.0 - 4.0.2 i haven't tested, because my app require the minimun sdk on 16, but in 4.0.3, the plugin minimun sdk version requirement is 23 according to the documentation, and it was set back to 16 on version 4.0.3

But in version 3 of the plugin, the Save Image appeared in the share options, right?

That's correct

When I try my example app, this is what I get (Pixel 4 API 33), would you expect something else? I don't personally own an android, so I can not assess whether this is the "normal" behavior, but it looks right to me.

[Tecmesh]

Up to that point the plugin works well.

What is supposed to happen is that the image must be sent to where you send it, excuse the redundancy, That is, if it was sent to a telegram chat, it should show me a preview of the image in telegram which does not happen, and for therefore the image is not sent. I have tried it with several destinations (telegram, whatsApp, Drive, etc...). In none, the preview is shown and the image is not sent either.

Thanks for narrowing this down, sadly I can not reproduce your issues:

I tested this with telegram (like you recommended) and everything works like a charm (with and without the explicit mimeTypes argument).

[Tecmesh]

OK, I am going to use your example and if it works, i am going to make it work somehow. Thanks
