I have a app that queries a Mysql database and puts the results into a field.
Another button fires up the camera app and takes an image.

It runs okay on windows.
Runs okay on Iphone.

I have a android 2.2 tablet and 2.2 phone the mysql works okay but the camera does not fire up

on mouseUp
## This is the only way to name an imge BEFORE it is created
set the name of the templateimage to "harry"
mobilePickPhoto "camera" 100,100
if the result <> empty then
--put the result into image "Image1"
put "harry" into image "image1"
EXIT mouseup
end if

## Succes, now you can use the new image

end mouseUp

Also in the above code the image does not go into image1 it goes in the centre of the screen

Cheers

Hi Stev,

looks like you need to tell LiveCode that "harry" is an image

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
  ## This is the only way to name an imge BEFORE it is created
  set the name of the templateimage to "harry"
  mobilePickPhoto "camera" 100,100
  if the result <> empty then
    put IMAGE "harry" into image "image1"

    ## not neccessary, since the handler is finished here!
    ## EXIT mouseup
  end if
end mouseup

And you might want to DELETE image "harry" after putting it into "image1", or just HIDE it.

Ok
If I use :
set the name of the templateimage to "harry"
set the loc of the templateimage to 100,100
mobilePickPhoto "camera", 100,100

it places it correctly.

Any work around for the android not calling the camera?
