removing a camera after taking a photo

Solar2D General Questions/Discussion
#1

I have been searching through the site with no avail.

Basically, I have an app that takes a picture, than uses the picture as the background for the game. Using the example from the docs, I have been able to successfully show the camera to take the picture. After the picture is taken, my iPod Touch shows me a preview of the picture, I then press “Use” to use the picture. At this point, how do I close the camera screen so that I can proceed to play the game?

I am currently trying to transition to the next scene using director, but it is not having any luck removing the camera.

Based on the trace I have in my code, I can see that the onComplete function is called, and that the director is getting called from onComplete. But, the camera remains.

Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

The camera should not show anymore once the photo has been taken and you’re ready to use the photo.

If you cannot get the camera to disappear, please create a test project that shows the problem in action and upload it with a bug report. Here’s a link to the bug report form:

I’m having the same issue with the latest daily compile. It worked fine in older versions. [import]uid: 15571 topic_id: 17734 reply_id: 69831[/import]

I would like to know how to take the picture then I will worry about removing the camera. Can anyone point me to a tutorial on how to do it in Corona?
