Yep, the title says it all

I only get the words "chosen image" returned from GetimageFilename() in this procedure:

+ Code Snippet

if ShowChooseImageScreen() = 1

        while IsChoosingImage() = 1
            sync()
        endwhile

        object[selectedObjIndex].img = GetChosenImage()

        if object[selectedObjIndex].img > 0
            object[selectedObjIndex].image$ = getImageFileName(object[selectedObjIndex].img)
            setSpriteImage(object[selectedObjIndex].ID, object[selectedObjIndex].img)
            setSpriteColor(object[selectedObjIndex].ID, 255, 255, 255, 255)
        endIf

    endif

And I'm afraid that's pretty useless

I believe that command is only beneficial when using the standard LoadImage() command, not the library/camera operations. In fact, I'm not sure that iOS/Android even allows retrieving the actual image name from the photo library without significant manual work.

Mkay. This will only run under windows, it's an editor. But without the filename the editor won't work since the filenames need to be saved to file.

I guess I have to do my own image selector

Thank you for your response!
