I want to update an image in my app using a external Image Editor. I'm using the following code to start an app to update the image.
private void dispatchAdjustImage(){
try {
Integer mImageId = ImageHelper.getImageIdFromRealPath(getString(R.string.imageFilePath) + getString(R.string.imageFileName), getContentResolver());
Uri uri = MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI.buildUpon().appendPath(mImageId.toString()).build();
Intent adjustPictureIntent = new Intent();
adjustPictureIntent.setDataAndType(uri, "image/*");
adjustPictureIntent.setAction(Intent.ACTION_EDIT);
adjustPictureIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_READ_URI_PERMISSION);
adjustPictureIntent.setFlags(Intent.FLAG_GRANT_WRITE_URI_PERMISSION);
startActivityForResult(adjustPictureIntent, REQUEST_IMAGE_ADJUST);
}catch (ActivityNotFoundException anfe) {
Global.showDialog(NfScannerActivity.this, getString(R.string.msgErrorAdjustImageAppMissing),
getString(R.string.msgDownloadPhotoEditor), getString(R.string.textYes),
getString(R.string.textNo), getString(R.string.motorolaGalleryGooglePlayLink)).show();
}catch (Exception ex) {
Toast.makeText(mContext, R.string.msgErrorAdjustImage, Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();
}
}
and this is the onActivityResult
public void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent intent) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, intent);
switch (requestCode)
{
case REQUEST_IMAGE_ADJUST:
getAdjustImageResults(resultCode, intent);
unprotectViewFields();
break;
}
}
private void getAdjustImageResults(int resultCode, Intent intent) {
if (resultCode == Activity.RESULT_OK)
{
clearViewFields();
try {
Uri adjustedImageUri = intent.getData();
String mFullFileName = ImageHelper.getRealPathFromURI(adjustedImageUri, this);
mImageBitmap = ImageHelper.readImageFromDisk(mFullFileName);
ImageHelper.deleteImageFromDisk(mFullFileName);
saveAndLoadImage();
} catch (Exception e) {
showErrorDialog(getString(R.string.msgErrorAdjustImage));
}
}
}
When I use the Motorola Gallery app to update the picture every thing goes rigth. The Motorla Gallery app starts, I update the picture, save it and when the control is returned to onActivityResult it is possible to get and handle the updated image. The returned intent is like this intent = {Intent@5486} Intent { dat=content://media/external/images/media/22544 }
When I use the Google Photo app the code intent.getData() returns a intent like this intent = {Intent@5486} Intent { typ=image/jpeg } in the debugger. There is no Uri in the returned intent and I'm no able to get the image that was updated. There are no extras also.
What am I missing? Thank you.
The documentation for ACTION_EDIT
clearly states:
Output: nothing.
Hence, the "Google Photo app" is working correctly.
You already know the Uri
to the image, because you are putting it in the ACTION_EDIT
Intent
in the first place. So, use that.
