    Can anyone with MM access the camera through attachment when composing an email?

    I cannot. In hub, composing email, in attachment the file directory opens - I can go to photos or images - but nowhere is camera access found. Wondering if this was left out, is a big, or I have faulty software or device.

    When I compose an email in hub, I click the paperclip, then in the Attachment list that pops up, my choices are: Picture, Video, Audio, File, Contact, Take a Photo.

    Clicking Take a Photo leads me to the camera picker where you can choose which camera app to use (if you have more than one installed).

    Take a Photo is not an available choice for me when I push the paper clip button.

    Apparently 'Take a Photo' is no longer an option in Marshmallow. At least it isn't there on mine or his.

    I am on MM as well and I did some checking. I cannot find the option to take a picture to attach to an email in the hub either. I checked a yahoo account and a gmail account. (The option to attach existing pictures is available through a couple of routes -- directly via the pics icon and indirectly via the file icon). But that is not the same as accessing the camera while writing the email. However BBM and Messenger do have the option. I took a pic in BBM to send last night.

    Certainly an NDA agreement has been violated... Terminate his employment immediately...


    OR reassign him to the social networks and let him free his soul as clearly he was destined to do...

    I'm running a build from at least a month ago or more... guess it's possible it didn't make the release? or broke?
    (though maybe I'm running newer Hub and this is a Hub feature?)

    Actually sounds like more of a Hub thing than a Marshmallow update.
    I'd be a bit surprised to see a Marshmallow update anytime soon.
    Anybody willing to accidentally leak a hint on 6.0.2, or maybe even a bigger number?
    Weeks, next month, months, next year?

    I have been contemplating Wezard's comment about back pedaling in light of his avatar. This whole discussion unfolded while I was writing my earlier comment. A lot of water went under the bridge while I was checking to see whether I could take and attach pictures in a couple of my email addresses. Then after I posted it, lo and behold, the comments. Lets hope smcv doesn't backpedal too much. At least he has confirmation that we do not have it.
