B4A Class Camera Folder (or other dir) Image File Chooser - XUI - xCLV

Inspired by (and code used) from this thread...
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/filepicker.96795/

I needed an image picker to get camera photos when the user took pictures outside my app - but wants to include these camera images (one or more)... You can modify to choose any type of file. Scales to any device density.

xCustomListView is so powerful and I use it, more often than not for all new projects and UI classes.

This example starts by showing JPG or PNG files in the [DCIM/Camera] folder. It will load the first 20 images (or less) found in the folder.
Every selected image is added to a map (or de-selected - removed from map) - which is returned to the Wait For....
The Prev / Next buttons show the available (20) images...
The (back) ../Camera will allow to select a different directory.

Since each list item thumbnail is hard to view, clicking the imageview will show a larger image.

With a little work, please make this iOS usable and post your results...

Example Use:

Sub sInputList_Show_Click

  Log(" waiting here for result")
 
  Wait For (imgFP.WaitForResult) Complete (Result As Map)
 
  Log(" was waiting here - got result "&Result)

  If Result.Size > 0 Then  ' show images from map - or do what you want (like post to a server)
      For i = 0 To Result.Size - 1
       UpdIv(Result.GetValueAt(i), Result.GetKeyAt(i))
       Sleep(3000)     
     Next
      ToastMessageShow(" All Selected Images Were Shown",True)   
  
  Else
      ToastMessageShow(" nothing was selected",True)   
  End If


End Sub
