App is crashing when using Filter effects in recycler view

[zohaib1sahni]

I'm using an image from device storage and applying 24 filters of this library to the every position of recycler view.
I want to show every filter effect in recycler view with user image. But app is crashing..

Yes, This is a known issue #48 . Currently not able to identify the fix. Happy to see a PR on this.

I am facing the same issue rn.
Any hack for it till a fix comes visiting?

I found a solution.
Wrap as much filter-views you want in a LinearLayout and wrap the Linear layout in a HorizontalScrollView .
Then in Code set the filter to each view. (It's pretty a manual way, but it works)
`

    <LinearLayout
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="match_parent"
        android:orientation="horizontal">

        <ja.burhanrashid52.photoeditor.PhotoEditorView
            android:id="@+id/filter1"
            android:layout_width="100dp"
            android:layout_height="140dp"
            app:photo_src="@drawable/filter_image1"
            android:layout_marginHorizontal="4dp" />

        <ja.burhanrashid52.photoeditor.PhotoEditorView
            android:id="@+id/filter2"
            android:layout_width="100dp"
            android:layout_height="140dp"
            app:photo_src="@drawable/filter_image1"
            android:layout_marginHorizontal="4dp" />

        <ja.burhanrashid52.photoeditor.PhotoEditorView
            android:id="@+id/filter3"
            android:layout_width="100dp"
            android:layout_height="140dp"
            app:photo_src="@drawable/filter_image1"
            android:layout_marginHorizontal="4dp" />

        <ja.burhanrashid52.photoeditor.PhotoEditorView
            android:id="@+id/filter4"
            android:layout_width="100dp"
            app:photo_src="@drawable/filter_image1"
            android:layout_height="140dp"
            android:layout_marginHorizontal="4dp" />

        <ja.burhanrashid52.photoeditor.PhotoEditorView
            android:id="@+id/filter5"
            android:layout_width="100dp"
            app:photo_src="@drawable/filter_image1"
            android:layout_height="140dp"
            android:layout_marginHorizontal="4dp" />

        <ja.burhanrashid52.photoeditor.PhotoEditorView
            android:id="@+id/filter6"
            android:layout_width="100dp"
            android:layout_height="140dp"
            app:photo_src="@drawable/filter_image1"
            android:layout_marginHorizontal="4dp" />

        <ja.burhanrashid52.photoeditor.PhotoEditorView
            android:id="@+id/filter7"
            android:layout_width="100dp"
            android:layout_height="140dp"
            app:photo_src="@drawable/filter_image1"
            android:layout_marginHorizontal="4dp" />

    </LinearLayout>

</HorizontalScrollView>`

Wrap as much filter-views you want in a LinearLayout and wrap the Linear layout in a HorizontalScrollView .

It's good that it works for you, but be cautious because this has some performance penalty on scroll compared to RecycleView, because LinearLayout render all views regardless it's visible to the screen or not.

Yes. The libary has issue when views are recycled and effects are reapplied. This is the known issue.
That is why in this case, instead of loading the real images, a dummy image of low quality is used in the Horizontal scroll view.
Loading all filtered-dummy images (not more than 20 filter) won't cause performance issues). Esp when once loaded it doesn't need to reload.

But it got me thinking, how the sample gif in the libary's readme was made. Was it a previous version?

Which gif are you talking about?

If your app crashes when using filter effects in a RecyclerView,outsource real estate image blending services it could be due to performance issues or incorrect implementation. Ensure you're applying the filter effect efficiently, possibly using background threads to avoid UI thread blocking. Also, check for memory leaks, especially if filters are being applied to large images. Profiling your app with Android Studio can help identify bottlenecks. --
