Use the Initialize block and then the TakePicture block.

Wait till I make an AIA file for you.

  1. Have you set a writable Output file location ?
  2. Have you given camera permission?

You need to give the camera permission before the initialize method.

Wait till I make the AIA.

I'm testing things now.

Drag in an image component outside of VirtualScreen1 and set it's visible property to false, width to 100% or 98% or 96% or as you wish, height to automatic.

In the ProCamera1.SavedPhoto event, add the following blocks at the end :

  1. Set VirtualScreen1.Visible false
  2. Set Image1.Picture ProCamera1.Output
  3. Set Image1.Visible true

Now add a button to return to the Camera.

The Button1.OnClick event blocks should be :

  1. Set Image1.Visible false
  2. Set CameraContainer.Visible true

And you are done.

Also, pls use the following step : Don't forget to mark the Solution after getting it.

And at last, Enjoy...
