Images from phone camera being rotated

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by 115

I have an 'Add picture' control on my form, but when I take a photo using my phone camera, the image is rotated 90 degrees. It appears fine on the preview in the camera app, and images uploaded from the phone's gallery are ok.

 

I'm taking the photo in portrait and I have the 'add picture' control sized as portrait.

    Hi @DuncanIVH ,

    Firstly, ensure that ApplyEXIFOrientation is set to true and then try CalculateOriginalDimensions if this does not work.

    Thanks, I've set these as suggested but it made difference. However I have tried on two other phones and there's no issue. This app will only be used by one user so if he has issues I may have to rotate the image in the app.

     

    As an aside, could you clarify what CalculateOriginalDimensions does? The only documentation I could find says: Enables the OriginalHeight and OriginalWidth properties but that's all I could find.

    That is all I can find a s well - I do not use it much.
