Pictures taken with camera dissapears in api29 (multimode not working with camera)

[per-johansson-74]

Expected Behavior

When taking a photo with the camera I expect to be able to select it (multi mode)

Actual Behavior

After taking a picure i get returned to the image selection part and the new image is not to be found (its not found in gallery either).

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

.showCamera(true)
.folderMode(true)
.imageDirectory("mydirectory")

if I add .returnMode(ReturnMode.CAMERA_ONLY) then i get the image and can use it, but its not in gallery and this is a workaround since it won't work when you want multiselect

I think it's because on older api it is saved in
/storage/emulated/0/Pictures/myfolder/IMG_20200630_114736_962.jpg

and with new api (tested with and without requestlegacystorage)
/storage/emulated/0/Android/data/se.mypackagename.xxxx.debug/files/Pictures/myfolder/IMG_20200630_140814_772.jpg

I suspect there is a missing call to index the file or something?

Another workaround is if you have WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission
is to
File path = Environment.getExternalStoragePublicDirectory(Environment.DIRECTORY_PICTURES + "/myfolder/");
path.mkdirs();
ImagePicker.create(this)
.showCamera(true)
.folderMode(true)
.imageFullDirectory(path.getAbsolutePath())

This will revert to old working (for now) way

Fixed my issue. Any word on an official fix?

Thanks for this workaround.

it does not work for me.

Based on the log,
File /storage/emulated/0/Android/data/xxx/files/Pictures/myfolder/IMG_20200925_163431_588.jpg was scanned successfully: null

the URI after scanning is null.

it works in API 27.

I have the code for Android Q, after watching and reading the docs, finally. I will raise a PR soon.

Should be fixed in master please wait for next release

master branch does not fix the problem for use with Android Q devices (Huawei P30 pro for example).
Any chances the next realease will be ready soon ?
