I`m trying to select images from gallery, but i only found the way to select a single image.
Intent photoPickerIntent = new Intent(Intent.ACTION_PICK);
photoPickerIntent.setType("image/*");
startActivityForResult(photoPickerIntent, 1);
Is there a way to select multiple images?
Create a custom gallery same like: Android custom image gallery with checkbox in grid to select multiple
First of all you need to use putExtra with your photoPickerIntent
photoPickerIntent.putExtra(Intent.EXTRA_ALLOW_MULTIPLE);
Then in your on activity result you should get ClipData from Intent like this
ClipData clipData = data.getClipData();
//Where data is param intent of onActivityForResult
And iterate this clipData to get URI for specific picked image.
for (int i = 0; i < clipData.getItemCount(); i++)
{
Uri uri = clipData.getItemAt(i).getUri();
}
I hope this helps
Why don't you try ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE thing. You will receive a set of Uris.
Something like
if (Intent.ACTION_SEND_MULTIPLE.equals(action))
&& Intent.hasExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM)) {
ArrayList<Parcelable> list =
intent.getParcelableArrayListExtra(Intent.EXTRA_STREAM);
for (Parcelable parcel : list) {
Uri uri = (Uri) parcel;
/// do things here.
}
}
Saw this code block on a google-groups post. Just try this out.
Thanks.
I think, you should implement custom gallery for multiple image pick action.
see here in details.
