[Bug 1390423] Re: Front camera controls includes Flash type selection even though this is not supported

 

This is actually hard coded at the moment, so re-opening the bug and
working on actually detecting if the current camera supports flash by
asking Android

Title:
  Actually detect flash support for active camera

Status in Camera App:
  In Progress
Status in camera-app package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  Most front cameras on phones do not have a flash, so naturally the
  control for this in the sub-controls doesn't work. However there is
  nothing to visually distinguish this from the other controls (Location
  and HDR) that do work, so it's slightly confusing from a users
  perspective. This control should be removed, or at least be dependent
  on the presence of a flash for the front camera
