I had made an application for my CCA and it is about photography. There is an option to add a camera-icon button on the top of the navbar, but when I pressed it, it says no screen is linked to this. So is there anyway to launch the native camera app thru a screen? Title Comments I had made an application for my CCA and it is about photography.

Because the Photo screen isn't completed in Android you won't be able to do this without a bunch of hacking. Works great in iOS but not yet in Android. You create your own .java class file and android layout to then load when the right button is tapped. This would allow you to do it before we finished the Photo screen for Android. But, this would take some skill. Comments Yes / No. The idea behind the right-nav-button is that it loads another screen you've created in your control panel.
