How to show a picture on screen ?

Post by sbidivuda » 22 Apr 2013 17:58

How is possible to show a JPEG picture stored in a phone folder ?
I need a to react to an incoming call, showing up on the display (possibly into a dialog box) a jpeg picture.

This is one way to do that.

Requirements: autoshortcut plugin and file explorer that can create shortcuts to files. I believe you know how to use play store to find those so I skip explaining that.

1. Trigger: what ever you want to trigger the action
2. Action: plugin (experimental), autoshortcut
Through autoshortcut config use the file explorer of you choice and make a shortcut to a picture you want to show.

When the trigger.. hmm... triggers (:P) the picture will be shown in gallery app you have set default in the file explorer.

I have had same task and did it with free app Quick Pic and an Automagic Action.
Works fine and the pic can be choosen by Automagic ' vars.
Note: I got no good/wanted results with Android 's Gallery App.

Parameters
Action: android.intention.action.view
Data URI: path to file with var resolving in
Package name: com.alensw.PicFolder
Class name: com.alensw.PicFolder.GalleryActivity
