Image Move & Resize not working when using custom camera overlay?

jeremieweldin · 12-29-2009, 04:25 PM

I used to use the old-school method of adding an overlay to the camera screen, and that worked fine. However, since 3.1 came out, Apple is insisting that I use the API to add an overlay. I quickly got the overlay to work, but it seems that if I use the custom overlay, then the move & resize screen is not responsive, I can only use or retake, can't actually resize & move. The code I am using is below. I have tried several variations, but the only thing that actually enables the move & resize is to remove the line that adds the custom overlay view.

Any ideas?

Code:

UIImage *image = [UIImage imageNamed:@"camera-template-long.png"];
UIImageView *imgView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 480)] ;
imgView.image = image;
		
UIView *overlayView = [[UIView alloc] initWithFrame:CGRectMake(0, 0, 320, 480)];
overlayView.opaque = NO;
[overlayView addSubview:imgView];
		
UIImagePickerController* picker = [[UIImagePickerController alloc] init];
picker.sourceType = UIImagePickerControllerSourceTypeCamera;		
picker.showsCameraControls = YES;
picker.cameraOverlayView = overlayView;
picker.delegate = self;
picker.allowsEditing = YES;
		
[self presentModalViewController:picker animated:YES];

Did you sort this out? I am running into a similar issue. I get the move and resize to display, but it is not responding to touches. Thanks for any insight you can share.

Nope. I still have the same issue that you have. The screen shows up, but doesn't respond to touches to actually move or resize the image.
