Hello @manateeworks !
Is it possible to let the user decided which area should be focused while scanning?
The problem occures when the room is darker, on the normal camera app, the focus can be switched so the actual "image" will be brighten up, while scanning this isn't possible, just reposition the camera focus helps.

This results that sometimes the scanning is very dark and therefore the barcode cant be scanned.

Thanks
Graphefruit

Steps to reproduce

Install the app
Open the barcode scanner for first time
it will show pop up xxxx app would like to access Camera
Click ok
Blank screen appears-(no scanner its showing)

But once we close the application and reopen the app do the same steps it works

Hi how can i setup this plugin with ionic 2?

Trying to use the front camera to scan but the view is a "mirror" image, meaning inverted. As a result the reader does not scan the barcode as it is "backwards"

Hi,

This plugin does not appear to work on Android 11.

Calling the startScanning method launches the scanner activity but the user is just left with a black screen. The user is able to quit back to the app by using the back button and continue using the app without any issue but the scanning functionality simply does not function.

This has been reported by a customer using Samsung S20 and also I have replicated using Browserstack and Android 11 devices available there.

Initially I noticed logcat info around missing the SYSTEM_ALERT_WINDOW permission (which is a change in Android 11), but having manually added a uses-permission for this to the Android Manifest through the config.xml, the behaviour is the same but there no longer a warning (i.e. I believe the permission has been applied correctly but has not had the desired result)

Regards

I have an issue with the plugin, after reading more that 80 barcodes in iOS 9.2 or 10.x, is opening the barcode reader screen but not read anything, I'm using your example code that you provide at the bottom.

Cordova version 6.4.0
Plugin version 3.0.14

I'm using Windows 10 Version 1709 (OS Build 16299.19).
Manteeworks barcode scanner closed after I star scan a moment.
I got JS error message:

How can I fix this issue?

I want to hear a beep after scan a QRCode. There is a beep in the manatee-works app at playStore, but not at my application. Should I use a different library for beep?

Getting the following error trying to install for android.
Failed to install 'manateeworks-barcodescanner': Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, open '{cordovaproject}\platforms\android\AndroidManifest.xml'

When I scan a code 128 barcode, I kept getting an asterisks for some of the characters.

Hi

i woud like to get dl information from scanning the barcode at the back of drivers license .
but when i print response. i get see a string starting @ansi324535636...... are there any specific guideline to parse this information to first name last name dob etc?. i scanned licenses of two different states and it looks like this string follows different convention please help me out.

Hi,
The MWBturnFlashOn configuration option set has no real effect on the flash during scanning: the flash remains off when scanning starts.

Here my configuration:

            // ...

            // CAMERA SETTINGS
            var settings = [
                {
                    'method': 'MWBenableFlash',       
                    'value' : [true]
                },
                {
                    'method': 'MWBturnFlashOn',        
                    'value' : [true]                  //BUG: ignored
                },
                {
                    'method': 'MWBenableZoom',        
                    'value' : [false]
                },
                {
                    'method': 'MWBuseAutoRect',        
                    'value' : [false]
                }
            ];

            mwbScanner.loadSettings(settings).then(function(res){
                logger.log('--------------------MWBSCANNER CONFIGURATION ---------------------');
                logger.log(JSON.stringify(res));
            }).catch(function(reason){
               logger.error(reason);
            });

            // ...

Hi
Scanning initiated. Barcode detected and scanned but no value returned.

mwbScanner.startScanning(function(result){
alert(result); //returns [object Object]
});

alert(obj.result); //Does not return anything.
License key is in and correct and all barcode types are selected in the Manatee console.

While the method resizePartialScanner is not documented in the ReadMe, it is present in the plugin and for the most part works. The issue is that whenever the method is called, the settings loaded before startScanning are all cleared and the defaults are used. This behaviour was discovered while developing for Android.

[Hi,]

How can I parse the result code to string and remove extra characters like asterisk(*).

This the result:
{"location":false,"code":"e00112346789128","imageWidth":1280,"bytes":[42,101,48,48,49,42,49,50,51,52,42,54,55,56,57,42,49,50,56],"isGS1":true,"type":"Databar 14 Stacked","imageHeight":720}

Code value: e00112346789128
JSON Value: *e001*1234*6789*128

[GS1 Code] (http://barcode.tec-it.com/en/RSS14?data=0123456789012)

It take several seconds to close preview if I don't want to scan any more (Click on blue button).

Hi,
We are using manateeworks barcodescanner plugin version 3.0.23 . Is there a way the to cancel the scan
after initiating it on the click of the button?

Hi @manateeworks

I'm using the plugin for scan a PDF417 code. With the parsed result, I'm doing a substring function. In Android i'm getting the desired result but not in IOS. The parsed string contain some blanks and tabs that Android detects but IOS does not. The parser has some influence?

Plugin version: 3.0.43

Like title suggests, any way to disable the popup on iOS and Android after the scan works?

Or is this a paid license feature only?

Hey,

I am using the overlay mode for the scanning and below the overlay you can see the scanned items.
After scanning a product the overlay closes, but what I really want for some time now is that the overlay stays after an item is scanned.

Is this possible?

Greets,
Cherimo
