Hi everyone:
My app make pictures and store them in the safe folder GetSafeDirDefaultExternal("checklist")
I created a folder insided "checklist" folder for every site I make folders. Example, site 2900040_U09 store the pictures in:
/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/com.semi.bqa/files/checklist/2900040_U09/
I've tried this code to show the images in the gallery.
https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/threads/show-image-in-gallery-android-7-0.97662/#post-615939
If I pass the pictures in that folder, for example:
It shows in the log:
But I can't see the picture in the gallery.
But if I copy the picture to "Picture" folder
I get in log:
Now the image is shown in Gallery.
Must be then copied (or directly saved) in "Pictures" folder?
I'd like to show them from the folder I got them now, or I'll have to move all the folders in the next app update in order to show them in gallery.
Thanks in advance

If I pass the pictures in that folder, for example:
B4X:
Sub ShowInGallery (Image As String)
Dim dir As String= rp.GetSafeDirDefaultExternal("checklist") & "/2900040_U09"
Dim FilePath As String = File.Combine(dir, Image)
Dim Phone As Phone
If Phone.SdkVersion <= 18 Then ' min - 4.3.1
Dim i As Intent
i.Initialize("android.intent.action.MEDIA_SCANNER_SCAN_FILE", "file://" & FilePath)
Phone.SendBroadcastIntent(i)
Else
Dim ctxt As JavaObject
ctxt.InitializeContext
Dim MediaScannerConnection As JavaObject
MediaScannerConnection.InitializeStatic("android.media.MediaScannerConnection")
Dim interface As Object = MediaScannerConnection.CreateEventFromUI("android.media.MediaScannerConnection.OnScanCompletedListener", "ScanCompleted", _
Null)
MediaScannerConnection.RunMethod("scanFile", Array(ctxt, Array As String(FilePath), Array As String("image/jpeg"), interface))
End If
End SubIt shows in the log:
B4X:

Scan Completed: content://media/external/file/21731But I can't see the picture in the gallery.
But if I copy the picture to "Picture" folder
B4X:
Dim FilePath As String = File.Combine(File.DirRootExternal, "Pictures/" & Image)
B4X:
