Android Question Failed to find configured root ... using CameraIntent ... since B4A-Version 10.70

[JOTHA]

Hello Community,

since I've installed B4A-Version 10.70 there is a new problem when using CameraIntent
(see Android Tutorial [B4X] [B4XPages] Intent based camera)

Error-message:

I made the entries in the Manifest ...
I remember that the code worked under B4A-Version 10.6

Maybe there are some new rules in the new version?

Maybe there are some new rules in the new version?

No.

Download and run the project without changing anything. Does it work?

Does it work?

Hello Erel,

your original code works fine!
I guess I made a mistake while transferring it to my own code. Please excuse the interruption.

I still have one more question (or should I open a new thread for it?):
Is it possible that only square photos can be taken?

 

[Erel]

Is it possible that only square photos can be taken?

No, unless the camera app enforces such limit.

No, unless the camera app enforces such limit.

Where is an example that the APP forces the limit?
