The camera button on the android emulator is disabled.
I can't click on it and when I hover with the mouse the background is not blue like in the other buttons.
I've tried to add "camera support - true" hardware but the button is still un-clickable.
How can I click on the button?
What should happen when clicking on the button? I don't have an real android device so I might be able to click on the button without knowing it.
Thanks
try launching the camera from the menu. Still you won't be able to use it as a camera, it will just launch a bouncing box over a checkered pattern. If you want to test the camera you will need an actual device.
Although I have heard of someone having some instructions that will enable the emulator to use a webcam, I haven't tried this though, so I'm not sure if it works.

Is it possible to do this? I need to open camera in emulator and make a photo, but by default emulator dont have access to real camera when i opened it there just a black empty interface.
I need to making photo like if i make this photo in real time on regular phone.
Put ready photo tap photo button and from the side it seems like im making photo normally.
Yes! It is possible to emulate both the front and back of the phone's cameras.
If you are using Android Studio, you can head over to AVD Manager, press the pencil (known as an edit) button beside the phone emulator on the left side, click Show Advanced Settings, and you should see the Camera section (the image of the camera section), and choose the webcam option, or whatever that is relevant to your case.
I am facing an issue with taking screen images (screenshot) in the Nexus 4 running android 5.0.1. I tried pressing the Power button + Volume Down simultaneously, however the volume starts to lower. This feature used to work for me before I had upgraded to 5.0.1. Anyone else is facing an issue this like?
I also wanted to know is there any way I can use the ADT to capture the screenshot? ADT SHELL screerecord can be used to capture the video similarly is there any way I can capture the screenshot?

about the first issue i haven't tried it,
about the second question if you used android studio
the 1st capture pic & 2nd capture videos
You can take a screenshot by following way
(under Window
--> Show View
--> Other...
--> Android
--> Devices).
Click on the device or emulator you want to take a screen shot of, then click the "Screen Capture" button . Occasionally the device won't immediately load the picture; sometimes you have to close/reopen the screen capture window.
This is equivalent to taking a picture via DDMS, but you can do it in Eclipse instead of opening another application.
I restarted my phone and the + started to take screenshot. This is weird!
But thanks sur007 & Samer. I wanted to know how to take via the studio :).
Most of the time, when I want to capture screen shot of a debugging app, I will use the following button in DDMS.
However, I was wondering, is there any quick keyboard shortcut to do so, instead of using mouse? This is because in certain situation, I need a screen shot, where the app's UI component is being pressed. I already use up my only mouse to perform the pressed action. Hence, there isn't 2nd mouse for me to press the DDMS capture screen button. :)
I do not want to use Windows OS screen capture function. This is because I need an exact color code used in the app sometimes. Using Windows screen capture will not produce accurate image to represent the color used in the app.
How to take emulator screenshots using Eclipse?
In DDMS, press Ctrl+S to take a screenshot.
I am having trouble using the "Screen Capture" function in Eclipse to capture an Android screen shot. I have the correct tab open, and when I click the screen capture icon, the box pops up and just stays on "Capturing..." but the display never changes from a white box with an X through it.
I have USB debugging turned on on the phone and I have the correct device selected in Eclipse..any other tips? Thanks!
Navigate to your android sdk install folder. Open the Tools folder and find DDMS. Run DDMS and use the Screen Capture option from the Device pull down menu. This is the native tool that Eclipse tries to use and it works better natively.
On the screen capture window, click done, then reopen the screen capture dialog. I have to go through this process every time I want screen caps, for some reason it doesn't connect to device on the first run.
This works for me, also when Logcat ceases to work: When I disable and re-enable the debug mode on the device, everything is working again.
I realize the Camera button on the Droid X is not a standard feature across all phones, so, I'm curious how to attach a callback to it. I have a camera application that I wrote and I want the user to be able to snap the picture by pressing that button, but currently it doesn't work that way, so, I'm wondering how to attach my callback to it.
