Setting a Bitmap to a ImageView - android

I have downloaded a Bitmap from a WebService, and set it to an ImageView. The ImageView has a set height of 120dip and a width set to FILL_PARENT, so it fills the complete width of the screen. Now i want to stretch the Bitmap to fit the width of the ImageView, but the if the height of the Bitmap is greater then the height of the ImageView, i want the remainder of the image to flow off the top and bottom of the ImageView. So in way, like i have a frame infront of the image and the only portion of the image visible is the contents of the frame. How can i do this ?

See Android Developers on ImageView ScaleType

You are interested in the scale_type enum. Use CENTER_CROP.
Here is complete example:
<ImageView android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="120dp"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:src="#drawable/eureka"
android:scaleType="centerCrop">
</ImageView>
Here is also a cool visualization of all possible options for ImageView.

adjustViewBounds gives wrong width - Android

I am trying to display an image which will have the width of the parent view and the height will be calculated to keep the aspect ratio.
The problem is that the width of the image expands beyond parent view width, like the image is zoomed.
<com.facebook.drawee.view.SimpleDraweeView
android:id="#+id/imageview_mainimage"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
/>
How can I fix this?
This happens because your SimpleDraweeView doesn't have the same aspect ratio as your loaded image, and adding android:scaleType="centerCrop"will make the SimpleDraweeView try to load the content cropping the image to best fit the smallest of the 2 dimensions. You can either expect the image to have a certain ratio fresco:viewAspectRatio="1.33", or use a different option for scaleType

ImageView src moves the image to center leaving sides visible when changing width and height

Please don't mark this a duplicate, as I am unable to find the solution.
Hi, I am trying to add src image with some background color
Here is what I am doing
<RelativeLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_marginBottom="20dp"
android:background="#drawable/bg_layout_corners"
android:backgroundTint="#color/color_fbfbfa"
android:gravity="center">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/iv_dashboard_niggle"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="200dp"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:scaleType="centerInside"
android:background="#color/colorAccent"
android:src="#drawable/niggle2_3_3_3" />
</RelativeLayout>
and here is the output I am getting
When I try to decrease the width or height of imageView, the actual image is placing at the center and some border is visible.
I also checked for scaleType="center", this is also not working
Please help me.
Hope this solves your problem.
iv_dashboard_niggle.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.fitXY);
Set wrap_content as height for your relative layout.
Then the space will go.
The image that you wanted to set in a image view needed to be in the same aspect ratio to fit exactly without applying scaleType...
for example
If you want to set a square image that have height and width ratio 1:1 then ImageView ratio needs to be 1:1
Well but also we have ScaleType if images not according ratio then we can set scale type to match the size of image view by resizing our image
In your case it's completely depend on what you want to show.
If you don't want background border then simply set background color to transparent by using
android:background="#android:color/transparent"
Best way is define ImageView size according aspect ratio if you don't want to use scale type

Image not stretching inside imageView android

I am having a layout in with root Relative layout and and ImageView inside it when i set it source the Image is not fitting inside into Image view leaving Top and and bottom padding which is in preview but not defined in xml. I want to know how to stretch image to fit completely in ImageView.
XML:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:background="#fff">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/place_demo_2"
android:id="#+id/back_ground_place"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_marginBottom="400dp" />
<TextView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:textAppearance="?android:attr/textAppearanceLarge"
android:text="Manila Main"
android:id="#+id/visit_place_title"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_marginTop="68dp"
android:textColor="#fff"/>
</RelativeLayout>
Using Code:
YourImageView.SetScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_XY);
Using xml:
android:scaleType="fitXY"
See also below snapshots for other alternative options.
Use android:scaleType in your ImageView
android:scaleType="fitXY"
Check other available options for scaleType here
You're going to want to use android:scaleType in your XML file. There are several options you will probably want to play with until you get the exact product you are looking for but, if you don't care about aspect ratio, it sounds like you might want to use android:scaleType="fitXY".
You can find more information here:
https://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ImageView.ScaleType.html
Below are the rest of the options:
ImageView.ScaleType="CENTER"
Center the image in the view, but perform no scaling.
ImageView.ScaleType="CENTER_CROP"
Scale the image uniformly (maintain the image's aspect ratio) so that both dimensions (width and height) of the image will be equal to
or larger than the corresponding dimension of the view (minus
padding).
ImageView.ScaleType="CENTER_INSIDE"
Scale the image uniformly (maintain the image's aspect ratio) so that both dimensions (width and height) of the image will be equal to
or less than the corresponding dimension of the view (minus padding).
ImageView.ScaleType="FIT_CENTER"
Scale the image using CENTER.
ImageView.ScaleType="FIT_END"
Scale the image using END.
ImageView.ScaleType="FIT_START"
Scale the image using START.
ImageView.ScaleType="FIT_XY"
Scale the image using FILL.
ImageView.ScaleType="MATRIX"
Scale using the image matrix when drawing.
either make width of Imageview to wrap_content
or
you have to set android:scaleType of Imageview to fitXY
Add to ImageView attr android:scaleType="fitXY"
That's because you have aligned the ImageView to parent's bottom BUT there is a margin at the bottom of 400dp.
Long story short, remove
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
android:layout_marginBottom="400dp"
Also set the layout_height to match_parent if you want the image to fill the whole screen.
P. S. Also fill_parent is deprecated, so use match_parent instead.

Android ImageView will not match_parent width

I have an ImageView that is 1x20px. The image is a .9.png. I am trying to use match_parent but when I run the app on my device, it is not stretched to fill the width of the screen. Here's the code in the XML for the ImageView
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/dividerBar"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/ic_bar"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:scaleType="centerInside" />
Any ideas on how I can get the ImageView to cover the entire width of the screen?
If it's a 9 patch it needs to be set as the background attribute of the imageview for it to scale properly. Right now it's trying to scale the image as it would any other image using the scaleType tag that you provided.
Try setting
android:background="#drawable/ic_bar"
and remove the src attribute
Additionally, if you are using the imageView only to display the 9-patch you can switch to using a regular View instead of the ImageView. As long as you set the background attribute you will be good to go.

How to create an ImageView that fills the parent height and displays an Image as big as possible?

I have an ImageView that is defined in the following way:
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/cover_view"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:layout_below="#id/title"
android:layout_above="#id/divider"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:src="#drawable/image_placeholder"
android:scaleType="fitStart"/>
Now after downloading a new bitmap I change the drawable. The image now appears in the top left corner of the ImageView. Is there a way to have the image fill up the whole height that is possible and then adjust the width of the view to enable scaling the image without changing the ascpect ratio?
The image fills up all the space on a standard screen but on a WVGA Resolution the image takes only about half of the actual height of the ImageView.
If I'm understanding you correctly, what you need to use is the centerCrop scaleType. fitStart scales the image proportionally, but neither the width nor height will exceed the size of the view, and the image will, as you said, have a top|left gravity.
Using centerCrop scales the image proportionally, but causes the shortest edge of the image to match the size of the view, and if there is additional data on the long side that does not fit, it is simply cropped off. The gravity is, of course, center. The below worked for me:
<ImageView
android:src="#drawable/image_placeholder"
android:id="#+id/cover_view"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:scaleType="centerCrop"
/>
You can change scale type to fitXY via call to
imageView.setScaleType(ScaleType.FIT_XY);
simply do it in xml like
android:scaleType="fitXY"
Basically the answer here is that there is no predefined value for what you are trying to achieve. The solution is to create a Matrix that fits to your needs and call setImageMatrix(matrix) on your ImageView.
