Crop isn't working

[jamesalester]

This pod is awesome but the crop doesn't seem to be working for me. When I click on the crop icon nothing happens on screen and I get this log:

2018-06-17 02:46:43.291844+0100 AppName[2095:993923] [ImageManager] Unable to load image data, /var/mobile/Media/DCIM/100APPLE/IMG_0841.JPG

Does anyone know why this is coming up?

Hello @ghertyish! Can you please provide more info about the device you're using and iOS version?

[jamesalester]

Hi! I've tried it on multiple simulators using iOS 11.4 and on my iPhone 6s, again using iOS 11.4. Your question made me wonder so I downloaded iOS 10.3.1 simulators but it doesn't seem to be working on them either.

I should have noticed before but the log I printed above only seems to come up on my iPhone and not any of the simulators. The simulators don't have any console log, the crop button just doesn't do anything.

I should also mention that I'm using the develop branch, although I just tried using the master branch and it still doesn't seem to be working for me.

Using develop branch is perfectly okay and should work.

Does the problem take place with each of your photos? You're picking them from your Photo Library, right?

The log message itself seems to be a bug of iOS 11, as described here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/46377824/ios-11-imagemanager-unable-to-load-image-data. But you should be able to proceed to cropping anyway. Strangely, it's not happening for you. Can you please record a video, maybe it will give me some ideas about the source of the problem.

[jamesalester]

Yes, the problem seems to be with all photos. The log I printed above only seems to be coming up on photos from the photo library on my phone however. It doesn't show up on photos that have just been taken on the camera.

I also seem to be getting the log below occasionally from the simulator but I haven't noticed it on the iPhone. It comes up when selecting the images from the library; not when clicking crop.

@ghertyish I'm assuming that you're not presenting Paparazzo inside a navigation controller, which is required for crop to work. See the following snippet from PaparazzoExample_NoMarshroute project:

let viewController = PaparazzoFacade.paparazzoViewController(
    theme: PaparazzoUITheme.appSpecificTheme(),
    parameters: MediaPickerData(
        items: mediaPickerItems,
        maxItemsCount: 3
    ),
    onFinish: { images in
        mediaPickerItems = images
    }
)

exampleController?.present(viewController, animated: true)

PaparazzoFacade.paparazzoViewController actually returns a UINavigationController instance with Paparazzo view controller as the root view controller.

Please let me know if it helps.

Ah, I must have been looking at the wrong example. That's fixed it now.
I'm really happy it's working, the media picker looks really good.

Thank you for all your help, I really appreciate it.

You're welcome! :)
