Camera

Description

The Camera control lets you take pictures using your device's camera and display them in a PictureBox. The contents of that PictureBox can be saved in a database or sent to a server. All the settings needed to take a picture can be set at design time in AppStudio: no additional code needs to be written.

The default icon is a camera icon. You can change this to a different icon or text.

The Cameral control has the same properties as a Button, with one addition, the picturebox property.

The control requires iOS7.1 or later. For Android web apps, use Chrome 31 or greater. If you are using PhoneGap, Android 4.4 is required.

Important: This control was broken in iOS 8.0, but fixed in 8.1.
