ViewFinder | Just use the ViewFinder instead of any ViewHolder | Android library

I'm trying to do a copy of wechat for practice and I have a list of chats that is clickable and will take me to the next view with NavigationLink. But the title to the new view aren't aligned with the Navigation Bar Back Button. Checkout these images.

Image 1 Image 2

If I use .navigationBarHidden(true) it gets rid of the title as well.

I'm having a hard time figuring out how to test whether or not a certain image is being show on a position in a recyclerview using espresso. I have a list of people, and when one of them is selected, I'm showing a selected indicator around his image in the recyclerview. So I want to check that, for instance, position 0 has this indicator showing. What I'm trying is this:

This is a general question regarding ImageAnalysis use case of camera-x but I will use a slightly modified version of this codelab as an example to illustrate the issue I'm seeing. I'm seeing a mismatch between the image dimensions (image.height * image.width) and the associated ByteBuffer size as measured by its limit and or capacity. I would expect them to be the same and mapping one pixel of the image to a single value in the ByteBuffer. This does not appear to be the case. Hoping someone can clarify if this is a bug, and if not, how to interpret this mismatch.

On step 6 (Image Analysis) of the codelab they provide a subclass for their luminosity analyzer:

I have surfed all the internet and didn't find any solution, I am using Camera2 api to record a video from my front camera, I have tested on multiple devices and its working fine, but when I tried on my Samsung Galaxy 3, after I press the record button sometimes the recording work, and sometimes the camera preview freeze, you can find below the code I have implemented

1. Create Preview and Record request by lazy loading

I'm still practicing with Kotlin and Android Developing. As far as I understood, Camera class has been deprecated, and Android invites to use Camerax instead, because this high-level class is device-indipendent, and they've made simpler the process of implementing cameras on apps.

I've tried to read the documentation (https://developer.android.com/training/camerax) but it's written so bad I barely understood what they are trying to explain. So I went to read the entire sample code given in the documentation itself (https://github.com/android/camera-samples/tree/main/CameraXBasic). The CameraFragment code is about 500 lines long (ignoring imports and various comments).

Do I really need to write 500 lines of code to simply take a picture? How is this supposed to be considered "simpler than before"?

I mean, Android programming is at the point where I just need to write only 4 lines of code to ask the user to select an Image from his storage and retreive it and show it in an ImageView. Is there a TRUE simple way to take a picture, or do I really need to stop and lose a whole day of work to write all those lines of code?

EDIT: Take this page of the documentation: https://developer.android.com/training/camerax/architecture#kotlin It starts with this piece of code.

Disclaimer: I'm aware of the existence of this question, but it currently stands unresolved and I'm trying to provide extra information without polluting that one with useless answers that won't solve the problem anyway.

I have a custom device with a front camera that is mirrored by default, so I want to display the preview normally and I need to horizontally flip the content of PreviewView, but I'm stuck. Other people in the past have suggested using PreviewView#setScaleX(-1) but it either doesn't work at all or it needs to be called at a very specific point in the code, which I haven't found yet.

The code below is a simplified version of CameraFragment.kt in the official CameraXBasic example; I've added comments where I've already tired calling viewFinder.scaleX = -1f with no success. Honestly I don't really think that the place makes a difference because if I call it with any value other than 1 it works fine with both scaleX and scaleY, but it always ignores the negative sign so it never flips.

I've updated my gradle plugins for CameraX kotlin and all of a sudden I've got an error that I don't know how to fix.

This is my camera fragment

I'm trying to implement the CameraX preview from the [Android developer site][1] I don't know why I'm getting this error even when I added the permissions in my manifests. When I open the QR scanner activity the preview is just black screen. I have updated to the latest version of cameraX and yet this issue was not solved. It seems that the permission for using camera was not granted. Please help me with it.

I'm trying to capture a picture with overlay included in image capture. I was able to set overlay to previewView using cameraView.overlay.add(binding.textView). How ever, it did not save when trying to save an image with imageCapture Only the picture was saved not the overlay. How do I save an image with overlay included using PreviewView of camera x.

Please don't mark this as duplicate. I researched a lot and most of the example online are using the old camera api which does not apply to camera x library. Any help is appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Here is my code
