How to fit a bitmap in a rounded square? - android

I'm using Android Studio and I would like to be able to pickup am image from the gallery, resize it and make it fit inside a rounded square (of about 300x300px) by maintening the correct aspect ratio.
At the moment, I'm able to resize it and display it as a circle.
FixBitmap = MediaStore.Images.Media.getBitmap(getContentResolver(), uri);
bitmap_to_save = scaleBitmapAndKeepRation(FixBitmap, 320, 320);
RoundedBitmapDrawable roundDrawable = RoundedBitmapDrawableFactory.create(getResources(), bitmap_to_save);
roundDrawable.setCircular(true);
p_avatar.setImageDrawable(roundDrawable);
However, I would like to know if it is possible to make the bitmap look like my attached image. Moreover, it would be important for me to resize the image without losing the original aspect ratio.
It is not exactly a well square rounded figure, so I'm not sure that it is possible to do it in Android.
Please, keep in mind that I dinamycally change the imageview inside the code depending on the user actions. So this is not a static image, I replace the original content with a new one if the user upload a new image.

EDIT 2
At the moment, I'm using Picasso to round the image and it seems to work well.
The problem is that I would like to keep always the same picture size (350x350px) and the aspect ratio. How is it possible to do it?
Transformation transformation = new RoundedTransformationBuilder()
.borderColor(Color.GREEN)
.borderWidthDp(2)
.cornerRadiusDp(15)
.oval(false)
.build();
Picasso.get().load("http://www.server.com/uploads/avatars/"+Conts.USERINFO.getId()).transform(transformation).memoryPolicy(MemoryPolicy.NO_CACHE, MemoryPolicy.NO_STORE).networkPolicy(NetworkPolicy.NO_CACHE) .into(p_avatar);
EDIT3:
<com.makeramen.roundedimageview.RoundedImageView
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="#+id/avatar"
android:layout_width="160dp"
android:layout_height="160dp"
android:src="#drawable/adduserprofile"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
app:riv_border_width="2dip"
app:riv_border_color="#333333"
app:riv_mutate_background="true"
app:riv_oval="false"
app:riv_corner_radius_bottom_left="20dp"
app:riv_corner_radius_top_right="20dp"
/>
Why if I set a different value for riv_corner_radius_top_right, then the app crashes?
For example, if I set:
app:riv_corner_radius_bottom_left="20dp"
app:riv_corner_radius_top_right="10dp"
I get this error:

You should not give your time to manage these types of logics if you are working on projects in company.
Instead you can just use libraries which have already done great work.
See https://github.com/vinc3m1/RoundedImageView
Your ImageView will be like
<com.makeramen.roundedimageview.RoundedImageView
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="#+id/imageView1"
android:src="#drawable/photo1"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
app:riv_corner_radius="30dip"
app:riv_border_width="2dip"
app:riv_border_color="#333333"
app:riv_mutate_background="true"
app:riv_tile_mode="repeat"
app:riv_oval="true" />
and dependency
repositories {
mavenCentral()
}
dependencies {
compile 'com.makeramen:roundedimageview:2.3.0'
}
Update
You seem new to android, if you don't understand id and src, no worries!
Basically id is an unique id that you have created and you refer to
imageView1 if you do findViewById(R.id.imageView1) in your java code.
for more info about id : Difference between "#id/" and "#+id/" in Android
src is the source image file for that image, that is located in your drawables directory.
About your issue
You can use different ImageView ScaleType that matches your requirement.
I think you use android:scaleType="centerCrop" that fit your image at imageView.
I also edited scaleType in above answer. If that does not fit your requirement you can use any of these scale type
Update 2 for setting width and height, you can set layout_width and layout_height attribute. like below.
<com.makeramen.roundedimageview.RoundedImageView
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:id="#+id/imageView1"
android:src="#drawable/photo1"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
app:riv_corner_radius="30dip"
app:riv_border_width="2dip"
app:riv_border_color="#333333"
app:riv_mutate_background="true"
app:riv_tile_mode="repeat"
app:riv_oval="true"
android:layout_width="350dp"
android:layout_height="350dp"/>
see What is the difference between "px", "dip", "dp" and "sp"? for more detail about sp, dp, px in android.

I wrote a MaskView that lets you mask images to any shape, including holes in the middle and partial transparency. It's a lot of code, and I wrote it a long time ago so I wouldn't even use it myself without reviewing it. But the essence of it is an ImageView that takes an alpha mask. When it draws itself, it draws two bitmaps for itself and whatever is behind it, and combines them using the mask.

android:onClick intent crashing app, throws IllegalStateException

I am very new to Android development and I am having an issue with an onClick function in my app. I have five buttons on one activity, and all of them are using the exact same code:
<Button
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="Book 2"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:onClick="openBook2"/>
They're obviously adjusted according to the different java functions, which all look like this:
public void openBook2(View view) {
Intent i = new Intent(this, Real2.class);
startActivity(i);
}
The other four functions work perfectly, without error. For some reason, only this function causes a crash. Like I said, I'm new to this so I don't really understand what is going wrong here (or how to properly debug). I ran breakpoints on the openBook2 function and it came back with this in AppCompatViewInflater.java:
#Override
public void onClick(#NonNull View v) {
if (mResolvedMethod == null) {
resolveMethod(mHostView.getContext(), mMethodName);
}
try {
mResolvedMethod.invoke(mResolvedContext, v);
} catch (IllegalAccessException e) {
throw new IllegalStateException(
"Could not execute non-public method for android:onClick", e);
} catch (InvocationTargetException e) {
throw new IllegalStateException(
"Could not execute method for android:onClick", e);
}
}
I don't know what this means. I also know that I should be using a click listener because having the onClick directly in the xml is bad but I have tried to understand click listeners and I truly do not. And, the onClick has been working perfectly fine for me about a hundred other times in the app so I don't see a problem with it (especially since my app is only buttons and TextViews).
If you need any additional information, please let me know!

Yes, your problem is exactly the ScrollView. ScrollView doesn't work like that it has to have a layout on it to be used. so just add simply a layout on your ScrollView and put your TextView on that layout.
ScrollView > LinearLayout > TextView
(You can change LinearLayout to any ViewGroup type)just like this:
<ScrollView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent" >
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation:"vertical">
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:text="#string/real2"
android:layout_marginStart="16dp"
android:layout_marginLeft="16dp"
android:paddingRight="16dp"
android:layout_gravity=""
android:textSize="15sp" />
</LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
Edit:
The Second problem and main problem of your code is probably the long String you had set for TextView just try to reduce the text.

EditText's setError() crashes on some versions of Lollipop

The crash only happens on few old devices, so far in two lollipop
devices.
I am using saripar library for validation.

If anyone is looking , in my case the .seterror inside any EditText without support edittext
housed by
<android.support.design.widget.TextInputLayout
is the issue so i had to remove support design widget , now its working fine.
this happens on my LG G2 Lollipop version & a low end Samsung on Lollipop.
sample of working xml

SOLUTION
Issue got solved. I am using "android:theme="#android:style/Theme.Holo""
for my dummy class in android manifest which is not defined. removing
this line solved my issue
As you said, you are not able to get Log file. I'm not pretty much sure on the reason behind this. You may try this.
1. Unexpected text /> in your xml below the Listview myList. Remove that part
Even you can see warning in your XML with Unexpected text found in file: "/>" Always Check your XML warning for any InflateClassException
Layout Resource file should only content elements and attributes.Any
XML text content found in file is likely accidental.
(From the warning message that represents the chance of crash.)
2. Remove Numbers form Id as ids are typically assigned in the layout XML file as a string.

Android crash on startingActivityForResult() [duplicate]

I keep getting a java.lang.NullPointerException when I try to use ScrollView in an activity.
The weird thing is that I've used the exact same Scrollview setup in other activities. And all of a sudden I'm getting errors. I've tried cleaning the project and rebuilding.
And I've tried the good old restart the program. I learned a lot about Null Pointer Exceptions today, but I haven't been able to figure out why I keep getting Rendering Problems.
This is the java.lang.NullPointerException that is thrown on the XML:

So, none of this is code that I wrote. So I dove into the stack trace and found this:

Which points to line 11 on the Contact.java file. Which looks like this (I've put indicators around line 11) :
package com.mitchellpalermo.tutroubleshooting;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class Contact extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_contact); // line 11
}
}
I don't see a problem with line 11.
Now, I can't figure out what is wrong with my code. Between Rendering Problems and NullPointerExceptions, I can't figure out what is actually wrong with my code.
This is an example of XML in an activity in which the ScrollView doesn't throw any errors:

</android.support.v7.widget.CardView>

</ScrollView>
Any suggestions? And thank you so much in advance!
Change <view to <View, because view is not about empty view. It's for custom view defined through class attr, like below:
<view
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
class="com.your.package.YourCustomView" />
And you got
Caused by: java.lang.NullPointerException: Attempt to invoke virtual method 'boolean java.lang.String.equals(java.lang.Object)' on a null object reference
because of LayoutInflater tries to parse class attr:
LayoutInflater source code
//...
View createViewFromTag(View parent, String name, Context context, AttributeSet attrs,
boolean ignoreThemeAttr) {
if (name.equals("view")) { // line 724
name = attrs.getAttributeValue(null, "class"); // line 725
}
// Apply a theme wrapper, if allowed and one is specified.
if (!ignoreThemeAttr) {
final TypedArray ta = context.obtainStyledAttributes(attrs, ATTRS_THEME);
final int themeResId = ta.getResourceId(0, 0);
if (themeResId != 0) {
context = new ContextThemeWrapper(context, themeResId);
}
ta.recycle();
}
if (name.equals(TAG_1995)) { // line 738
// Let's party like it's 1995!
return new BlinkLayout(context, attrs);
}
//...
On line 724 it check that your tag is view and gets true
On line 725 it tries to get class through class attr and gets null
On line 738 it tries to check for blink tag and gets crash
Also, there is a curious thing, Android developers added Easter egg, you can try it:
<view
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
class="blink">
<TextView
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:gravity="center"
android:text="Some text" />
</view>
After 2 days I solved this problem use View instead of view
<View
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="1dp"
android:background="#faf4f4"></View>

NPE while inflating layout (Attempt to invoke virtual method 'boolean java.lang.String.equals(java.lang.Object)' on a null object reference)

I keep getting a java.lang.NullPointerException when I try to use ScrollView in an activity.
The weird thing is that I've used the exact same Scrollview setup in other activities. And all of a sudden I'm getting errors. I've tried cleaning the project and rebuilding.
And I've tried the good old restart the program. I learned a lot about Null Pointer Exceptions today, but I haven't been able to figure out why I keep getting Rendering Problems.
This is the java.lang.NullPointerException that is thrown on the XML:

So, none of this is code that I wrote. So I dove into the stack trace and found this:

Which points to line 11 on the Contact.java file. Which looks like this (I've put indicators around line 11) :
package com.mitchellpalermo.tutroubleshooting;
import android.app.Activity;
import android.os.Bundle;
public class Contact extends Activity {
#Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
setContentView(R.layout.activity_contact); // line 11
}
}
I don't see a problem with line 11.
Now, I can't figure out what is wrong with my code. Between Rendering Problems and NullPointerExceptions, I can't figure out what is actually wrong with my code.
This is an example of XML in an activity in which the ScrollView doesn't throw any errors:
<ScrollView xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"

After 2 days I solved this problem use View instead of view
<View
