Can't add ImageCropper as property in Umbraco LeBlender grid editor - umbraco

I'm trying to add Image Cropper data type as a property in a LeBlender custom grid editor.
I have Image Cropper as a DataType.
But it doesn't show up in the LeBlender property when trying to choose it as a data type.
I would appreciate if anyone would explain what is wrong and what is the solution.

I think LeBlender allows all text-based (plain, XML, JSON) property types. I think an image or image cropper would not qualify, and is accordingly not a choice. Could you use a Media Picker, or perhaps a custom Media Picker associated with your image cropper?
You could ask this question in the GitHub issues for the LeBlender, too. I searched issues for 'image', but found nothing helpful.

How do I invoke iOS photo editing extension?

Let's say I'm writing a word-processing application. Users can embed images using the app. Now since the application is not a photo editor, naturally it would delegate photo editing of embedded images to other applications.
The question is, how to do that? How to invoke photo editing extensions in an iOS app?
Theoretically it should be as simple as passing an image, invoke the extension, and then get another image back as the "edited" image. However the SDK documentation doesn't seem to provide any hint on how to do this.
Looks like the SDK doc actually says it doesn't provide a UI per se:
When using built-in editing controls, the image picker controller enforces certain options. For still images, the picker enforces a square cropping as well as a maximum pixel dimension. For movies, the picker enforces a maximum movie length and resolution. If you want to let the user edit full-size media, or specify custom cropping, you must provide your own editing UI."

I'm looking at the Adobe Creative SDK Image Editor, which seems to provide a UI. Might show some of their branding in the photo editor, however. Hope to follow up...

Creating a photo gallery in Umbraco 7

I'm new to Umbraco. I'm looking for a way to create a photo gallery in Umbraco 7.
Your help is much appreciated.
One way that you could do it is to add a multiple media picker to your Document Type and that would allow your editors to select multiple images to be displayed in a gallery. You can then add either some Razor directly into the View for your Document Type to display the image gallery, or add it as a partial if you want to use it on several different Views.

iOS How to create a custom image picker/browser

I have been looking around and haven't found a good answer for this.
Instagram uses an image browser/picker like . As you can see above the images from the photo gallery are displayed in a grid below and you can directly choose image from there instead of using the default image picker layout.
The Groupme app also does something similar..
Where images are displayed in a horizontal scrollable list and you can just choose from this.
I have been reading up on the image picker and the documentation says that subclassing is not support.
So my question is:
How do you create something like this?
If this is just a custom view that loads the images stored on the device. How do I access those images?
I just need a starting point and what to specifically look for (custom browser/image picker etc).
Thanks in advance.
You use the ALAssetsLibrary APIs, docs here.

How can I display images in a carousel view from web?

I have an an xml file in the web, which contain few image urls (number of urls are changing dynamically) So I want to show that images in a carousel view.
What I'm going to do is, read the xml file and get each image url. Then download the image in to the phone and add them in to a carousel view.
Is there any easy or stranded way to do that ?
Since you're using the keyword "carousel", it sounds like you already know about the many open source implementations of Coverflow-like image display.
The trick for your app is that you need to create a data source (e.g. a NSMutableArray) while you are parsing your XML and the iCarousel (or whatever you decide to use) view will draw from that array to display the images.
If this were my app, I'd store custom objects in the data source array which would contain the image URL and, when the object is created, would dispatch an asynchronous thread to download the image (which would then also get stored into that custom object).
Your question was rather broad, and I'm not able to give a super detailed solution since actual code might not be applicable for how you decide to architect your yet-to-be-coded app.

blackberry replacing treeview node image with my own

i want to replace the node image with my own custom image is it possible? I have found way to add icons to treeview but that is just adding images to treeview not replacing the node image please share your experiance
The look & feel of standard BlackBerry GUI elements is controlled by current theme. If you need to have different look and feel of a standard TreeField instance then you need to create your own custom field.
