Description

Discussed in https://github.com/Akylas/OSS-DocumentScanner/discussions/452

Originally posted by ourichermath April 22, 2025
When scanning a document, there's an option to set the flash to on, off or auto. It defaults to off. I'd like to have it default to on, but can't find a way to set that (if I change it to on, it resets to off for the next scan). Is there a way to do that?

Research direction

Start with Discussion #452, which contains the original request, then locate the camera flash setting and how its value is retained between scans. Done means users can configure the default flash mode to on and that choice is applied to the next scan instead of resetting to off.
