UIImagePickerController check if user edited the image

cocoa, cocoa-touch, ios, iphone, objective-c

Solution

Try this in didFinishPickingMediaWithInfo as i am not sure:

 UIImage *image = [info objectForKey:UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage];

 UIImage *editedimage = [info objectForKey:UIImagePickerControllerEditedImage];

 if ([UIImagePNGRepresentation(image) isEqualToData:UIImagePNGRepresentation(editedimage)])
  //not edited
 else
  //edited

Problem

I am using a `UIImagePickerController` with the property `allowsEditing` set to `YES`. When the user finish picking an image I want to know if the user edited the image he selected or not (e.g. if he scaled the image). This method: ``` UIImage *editedImage = [info objectForKey:@"UIImagePickerControllerEditedImage"]; ``` returns always an object even if the user left the picture as it was. Is there any way to check if the user edited the image? For example can i check if the `UIImagePickerControllerEditedImage` and `UIImagePickerControllerOriginalImage` are different somehow?
