My app keeps crashing when using ImageTools to resize my image in the following function before I create a base64 out if it. Been stuck on this for awhile. I get a SIGABRT error in Xcode as well. Any help is appreciated!

```auto
function capturePhoto() {
	Camera.capturePhoto()
		.then(function (photo) {

			var options = {
			    mode: ImageTools.IGNORE_ASPECT,
			    desiredWidth: 320, //The desired width in pixels
			    desiredHeight: 240 //The desired height in pixels
			};

			ImageTools.resize(photo, options)
			    .then(function(newImage) { console.log("Path of resized image is " + newImage.path); });

			
			photo.save()
				.then(function(filePath) {
					console.log("Photo saved to: " + filePath);

							

					arrayBuff = FileSystem.readBufferFromFileSync(filePath);
					b64data = Base64.encodeBuffer(arrayBuff); // send this to the backend
					photo.release();
				})
				.catch(function(error) {
					console.log("Failed to save photo: " + error);
					photo.release();
				});
		})
		.catch(function (error) {
			console.log("Failed to capture photo: " + error);
		});
}

```

I have the same issue, too.

I will WalkThrough this problem i’m already fixed it on my apps by crafting new way to resize, because this resize method consumes the memory at all
