ios camera - using the image question

[Jamesplank]

H all and thanks in advance
Ive successfully gone through all the hoops apple
puts in front of us to get an app onto my Iphone.

Ive got LC 5.5 and Xcode 4.3.2
The code below takes a photo no problem BUT...
it always places it onto the card? Not into the image field??
I havent asked it to be placed there but there is where it goes.
has anyone got any idea whats going on
Thanks ))

on mouseUp

mobilePickPhoto "camera", 212, 122
if the result is text then
put the result into image "The_Image"
else
put the result into field "The_Result"
end if
end mouseUp

A follow up to this question.

What's the best way to crop the last image to a, eg. Square. I've used an image in a group that is Square looking, but would like to have the actual image cropped to a square.

Check out the "import snapshot" command in the dictionary. You can do:

Code: Select all

import snapshot from rectangle 100,100,400,400

That creates a new image of the rectangle you specify and places it in the centre of the current card. As you know where the last image is (it defaults to the centre of the screen) you can provide a rect that crops it to the desired size.
