Hello I have a timetable app which has a main menu. I would like to have a button that saids 'choose image' or something like that so when a user clicks on it he enters his gallery and selects photo and then it saves on the timetable app I've created. I hope someone can help me as the only info I've found on the Internet is that I should use android.intent.action.PICK? Thanks in advance
UPDATE: I did this and then now when I click the button to load gallery (which works perfectly). Once I choose an image, it says "Unfortunately, timetable has stopped". What's wrong. Here's the code.
import android.media.MediaPlayer;
import android.net.Uri;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.provider.MediaStore;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.content.Intent;
import android.database.Cursor;
import android.graphics.BitmapFactory;
import android.view.Menu;
import android.view.View;
import android.widget.Button;
import android.widget.ImageView;
public class Main extends Activity {
@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.main);
Button buttonLoadImage = (Button) findViewById(R.id.buttonLoadPicture);
buttonLoadImage.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View arg0) {
Intent i = new Intent(
Intent.ACTION_PICK,
android.provider.MediaStore.Images.Media.EXTERNAL_CONTENT_URI);
startActivityForResult(i, RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE);
}
});
//Button Sound
final MediaPlayer buttonSound = MediaPlayer.create(Main.this, R.raw.sound1);
//Setting up the button references
Button week1 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.week1button);
Button week2 = (Button) findViewById(R.id.week2button);
week1.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
buttonSound.start();
startActivity(new Intent("com.example.timetable.WEEK1"));
}
});
week2.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener(){
@Override
public void onClick(View v) {
// TODO Auto-generated method stub
buttonSound.start();
startActivity(new Intent("com.example.timetable.WEEK2"));
}
});
};
@Override
public boolean onCreateOptionsMenu(Menu menu) {
// Inflate the menu; this adds items to the action bar if it is present.
getMenuInflater().inflate(R.menu.main, menu);
return true;
}
private static int RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE = 1;
@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
super.onActivityResult(requestCode, resultCode, data);
if (requestCode == RESULT_LOAD_IMAGE && resultCode == RESULT_OK && null != data) {
Uri selectedImage = data.getData();
String[] filePathColumn = { MediaStore.Images.Media.DATA };
Cursor cursor = getContentResolver().query(selectedImage,
filePathColumn, null, null, null);
cursor.moveToFirst();
int columnIndex = cursor.getColumnIndex(filePathColumn[0]);
String picturePath = cursor.getString(columnIndex);
cursor.close();
ImageView imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.imgView);
imageView.setImageBitmap(BitmapFactory.decodeFile(picturePath));
}
}
}
