Camera
A decision block that starts the Camera app and lets the user take a picture.
The fiber will pause until the Camera app finishes or the timeout expired.
If you want to take a picture without user interaction, use the Take picture block instead.
The path can be set to an existing or new file, or to a directory where the file will be placed with an automatic name.
The path to the actual JPEG image file saved is assigned to the image file variable.
Input arguments
- Destination path — file or directory path where the image file will be saved, default is a JPEG file in the Android “DCIM” directory.
- Timeout — time until the Camera app is automatically canceled, default is no timeout.
- Show window — whether to show the Camera app window directly without having to tap the notification. Only works when no other window is showing.
Output variables
- Image file — variable to assign the path to the JPEG image file.
