hello Everyone I am facing an issue. In my app I want to crop an area of image taken from camera. Therefore, I am using UIImagePickerController & it's cameraOverlayView.
The problem is that on iPhone 4S,iPad,iPod - "status bar" is not transparent. On 2nd iPad, "status bar" in camera is transparent. I do not know how to access status bar of UIImagePickerController?
In my code I do some height calculation, in case of transparency I wrongly subtract extra size. And I cannot figure out hot to get size of image inside "shooting area".
Here is some code:
+(CGFloat) statusBarYSize
{
CGSize statusBarSize = [[UIApplication sharedApplication] statusBarFrame].size;
return MIN(statusBarSize.width, statusBarSize.height);
}
+(CGRect)maxRectForPicker:(UIImagePickerController*)picker
{
CGRect maxFrame = picker.cameraOverlayView.frame;
#warning @"Check that coefficient is equal to such value everywhere...)"
if (!picker.toolbar.translucent)
maxFrame.size.height -=([self statusBarYSize]*2.5); // If transparent should not be subtracted!
return maxFrame;
}
Here are links on images:
iPhone's image. Camera has the size full screen - status bar.

IPad's image. Camera occupies the whole screen.

Many thanks in advance. Siarhei
I came to solution in the following way: Instead of trying to figure out properties. I calculate aspect ratio of image from camera, and aspect ratio of screen. After that I rescale image keeping native aspect ration. It allows me to find a height of camera's standard bar.
