  • A lot of people seem to be having this problem. I can only offer guesses, I'm afraid.

    What do you get when you output the value of event.media like this Ti.API.info('event.media: '+event.media) when you run the KitchenSink script, email_dialog.js ?

  • Its coming as [object TiBlob] can we get something out of this.

  • why do you need the image path? you have the image blob…

  • I've not dealt with the PhotoGallery, but the paths to its image files seems like a reasonable request. Would you explain your situation Jacob, so that we can discuss alternative (possibly better) approaches?

  • it cannot be done.

    if you look at the code in the mediaModule you will see that the information related to the filePath is never returned on the object provided in the callback
