Hi Thomas,

I also don't aware with the "Scan" overload haha..., I blame this to our sneaky developer though ;)

Feel free to ask us if you have more questions!

Hello Arief,

you were absolutely right. I did not uncomment the "Scan" overload with the "options" parameter. After doing this, it worked as intended.

I don't know why, but trying again to scan the Code93 barcode worked. Sorry, for that.

Thanks,

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

For the first issue i think it is because your forget to uncomment the sample it should be like this:
//Task<string> result = service.Scan();
// Task<string> result = service.Scan(options);
Task<string> result = service.Scan(format);
// Task<string> result = service.Scan("Header Text","Footer Text",format);

Can you send us the barcode that resulting in 00000000, maybe i can help test and inform it to our developer. As far as i know usually this kind of thing happening because different density in each barcode, more density means more time to extract information.

Hope that his will helps!

Hello Crosslight Support,

I was just playing around with the Barcode Service sample on iOS.

Latest stable Crosslight and Xamarin.

As barcode formats "QRCode", "Code93" and "Pdf417" are set.

When I scan a QRCode and a PDF417 code were recognized correctly, but it takes quite some time.

When I scan Code93, I receive 00000000 as result. When I scan Code39 I receive a correct result. I tested with other barcode formats and I received correct results as well.

I am wondering why I receive results for barcode formats which I did not included in the "PossibleFormats". Is this the way it should work?

Why does the scan of Code93 return 00000000? I am sure I try to scan a correct barcode.

Is it possible that all barcode formats where scanned though not all formats are defined as "PossibleFormats". This would explain why the scan is a bit slow.

I haven't tested it but the same behaviour may occur on Android as well.

Thanks for your feedback.

Thomas
