Want to explore ALL the features of the .NET MAUI Community Toolkit DrawingView? I've got that video, and a whole bunch of others in this playlist, right here: th-cam.com/video/7rw13_a5GR0/w-d-xo.html
Hi, on 10:18 image is definitely not 1024x1024, in fact I have huge problem with this, i need this image to be exact size i want, but no matter what, output image is resizing to area with drawings, so are there any updates on this? I'll be grateful for response
when i draw in landscape mode and see in portrait mode that the drawing image goes out of the screen how can I fix this problem any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
Hie Gerald, this code is working on the android emulator but not on a physical devices. The following error is being thrown "system.IO.DirectoryNotFoundException: 'Could not find a part of the path '/storage/emulated/0/Pictures/Medbase-11/01/2023 19:12:40.png'.'" I am thinking it's to do with permissions but I might be wrong. Please help
Hm now that you mention it, it does look a bit small 😅 although I think the Windows resolution is scaled as well, so it might as well be 1024x1024 although it doesn't look like that?
media picker maui is compatible with camera.maui control? beacuse i try to take a picture from media picker and saving , but i can not make from camera maui control , how i can do it? thanks
Hm I’m not really sure if I understand. MediaPicker allows you to pick photos from the device gallery or take a picture with the device camera app. Camera.MAUI is a control that you can use inside of your app to show a live preview of the camera and take pictures. They don’t really work together.
It’d be nice to see at least a version of this in the toolkit. I get that there are lots of potential things that can be done with an image but it’d be nice to have a built in way to save to disk if I provide a name and location
Not sure I understand. This is done with the DrawingView that is in the Toolkit right now. But what you mean is that we make it easier basically? A name and location unfortunately doesn’t work great for all platforms, I guess that is why we implemented it like this so that you can access all the data and you as the developer can figure out what you want to do with it.
@@jfversluis It's the saving to file code that I think would be beneficial in the toolkit. What you add in this video is the way to take the image from the control and save it to disk. As you say (for Android at least) it's a lot of code and it would be great if every app didn't need to repeat this in *almost* the same way.
Figured out what the problem is. The WriteAllBytesAsync line was reading in local path from another file which includes the file name, so when I click save image the second time, it tries to use the same name which results in using the same process. So now I'm changing the name dynamically in the same file so it creates a new image file everytime.

Hi Gerald!
Thankyou for the video.
But can you suggest how to save the image with transparent background?
How Gerald posts the videos that are on my mind, I just don't know. AMAZING STUFF THIS.
I am also a part-time mind reader 🔮 glad it was helpful!
Same
Hallo mr Gerald, could you please show me how to read this file which we save to the storage? thank you
Thanks for this video. Your videos convey a lot of information so easily.
Glad you like them!

Any issues with the actual library should be reported on the repository.
How do I the path of the image form the android 29 version so I can use it to load the image from the gallery in the image view?
when i draw in landscape mode and see in portrait mode that the drawing image goes out of the screen how can I fix this problem any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
Is it possible to load a image background image for the drawing view?
I like your videos, a new one about Image zoom/swipe (working on windows) would be nice
could you give sample for resizing image after submit button

Thanks for showing how to do it. Very good!
Glad it was helpful!
Can we have a video on Google, Facebook & ios auth 2.0
Thanks Gerald!
Just interesting why the image is so small on 10:18 it does look like 1024x1024. Maybe you discovered the bug
Hm now that you mention it, it does look a bit small 😅 although I think the Windows resolution is scaled as well, so it might as well be 1024x1024 although it doesn't look like that?
@@jfversluis I will check. Width and height parameters doesn’t make sense if the image size is the same as canvas’s size
Hi, this is a very good video but i have some other question. How can i erase a line with a function like "rubber"?
I don’t think you can right now. Unless you implement it yourself of course

Definitely true! If you have some ideas around that feel free to open an issue to discuss and see how we can make it better! Thanks for the insights!
Great video Gerald! when I attempt to save the image two times, it doesn't work, it only works once. Any idea why that might be?
Not without any details!

You’ll need a PDF generation library

Use a library to generate the PDF and then the FileSaver in .NET MAUI Community Toolkit to save it
