Is there any way to do this? I have tried padding the image and setting the width/height of the view, but neither seems to work. Here is an example:
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/search"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/search_small"
android:paddingTop="4sp"
android:paddingBottom="4sp"
android:paddingLeft="6sp"
android:paddingRight="6sp"
android:layout_marginRight="10sp"
android:layout_marginTop="6sp"
android:layout_marginBottom="6sp"
android:layout_alignParentRight="true"
/>
I want the button to be wider than it is tall, but it is coming out the other way round.
Just had a play to try and understand your problem.
Seems ImageButton is a composite view which has a few pre-set values. Such as some sort of margin which you cannot override with the XML. If you cannot change your image to match what you want to happen then you are better to create your own composite view.
Here is my example of a composite view you can make yourself:
<FrameLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<Button android:id="#+id/saveSearchButton"
android:layout_width="50dp"
android:layout_height="50dp" />
<ImageView android:layout_width="45dp"
android:layout_height="45dp"
android:scaleType="fitXY"
android:src="#drawable/ic_menu_save"
android:layout_gravity="center"/>
</FrameLayout>
<FrameLayout android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<Button android:id="#+id/clearSearchButton"
android:layout_width="50dp"
android:layout_height="50dp" />
<ImageView android:layout_width="45dp"
android:layout_height="45dp"
android:scaleType="fitXY"
android:src="#drawable/ic_menu_close_clear_cancel"
android:layout_gravity="center"/>
</FrameLayout>
And the original buttons:
<ImageButton android:id="#+id/imageButton1"
android:src="#drawable/ic_menu_save"
android:layout_height="45dp" android:layout_width="45dp"/>
<ImageButton android:id="#+id/imageButton2"
android:src="#drawable/ic_menu_close_clear_cancel"
android:layout_height="45dp"
android:layout_width="45dp"/>
Here we can see custom image/button composite followed by the build in ImageButton as part of the SDK:
Set android:background instead of android:src to set the image on the button. This will adjust the image to your button's size. Then adjust the padding after.
You shouldn't use sp as a size dimension - dp should be used as it will help your view scale directly with different screen density and resolutions. See Here for dimensions.
padding will push other elements away from your view boundary. margin will push the contents of your view inward from the your boundary (ie would squash the available space for your picture) . The boundary is specified by height and width. Without more information I would guess you are being confused by your margins - delete them and experiment.
Also useful to you: android:scaleType="fitXY" makes the image stretch to match both the X and Y dimensions that are available to it. It helps you to see the canvas available to your image. Once you feel the area is large enough for a correctly scaled image change the scale type to centerInside. See Here for all scale types.
I use minWidth and minHeight attributes, combined with a fitXY scale type and wrapping its content to modulate the shape of my button.
<ImageButton
android:id="#+id/fooButton"
android:background="#drawable/play_button"
android:backgroundTint="#00000000"
android:minWidth="200"
android:minHeight="100"
android:scaleType="fitXY"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:onClick="playStuff"
/>
Can you explain your question more widely so that we can more understood.
As per my understanding You want to set your ImageButton Height/Width. But it doesn't work is it? I want to ask you that, if you write any specific height/width then also it doesn't work?
I copied your code in my files and I changed the height/width manually then it will work.
Please explain your question.
Thanks.

I have an ImageView with a mail icon, however, it was too big so i reduced its size.
The actual size of the image is smaller, but the content it wraps is still the same, resulting in my lines not being even. The image below demonstrates my problem
As you can see, the size of the imageview does not wrap around the image itself.
Below is the XML for the imageview
<ImageView
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:background="#mipmap/ic_mail"
android:scaleType="fitXY"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:scaleX="0.5"
android:scaleY="0.5"/>
Is there a way to fix this?

You should resize your image by giving it exact values for width and height instead of wrap_content if you actually want the bounding box to get smaller as you change the size. Then you can add padding/margins back to it as you wish. Also, you should use the android:src attribute (or maybe even app:srcCompat) instead of android:background.
<ImageView
android:layout_width="32dp"
android:layout_height="32dp"
android:src="#mipmap/ic_mail" />
I'm trying tot display 3 images:
- play button on the center
- two icons on the right
it's like: [___x__xx]
I added two black images on the left so that the playbutton while centered.
The problem now is that the two icons are not the original sizes, but fetched.
How can i solve this?
my code:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:id="#+id/relativeLayoutText1"
android:layout_below="#id/relativeLayout3"
android:layout_height="wrap_content">
<ImageView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/spacex"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<ImageView
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/spacex"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<ToggleButton
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/btnPlayPause"
android:background="#drawable/togglebutton_playpause"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:textOff=" "
android:textOn=" "
android:layout_toLeftOf="#+id/netwerkImg"
android:layout_marginBottom="#dimen/abc_button_inset_vertical_material"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<ImageView
android:src="#android:drawable/ic_menu_gallery"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/netwerkImg"
android:paddingRight="10px"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:scaleType="center" />
<ImageView
android:src="#android:drawable/ic_menu_gallery"
android:id="#+id/exitImg"
android:scaleType="centerInside"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerVertical="true"
android:layout_weight="1" />
If I understood the question correctly, you should be able to find the answer here: How to display an image full size with ImageView?
However, since there are many different device sizes, I would advise against that.
Fix the android:layout_width and android:layout_height to a value, when you set wrap_content be sure that your images will not appear in the same way using different devices, the design will be deformed.
for example :
android:layout_width="40dp"
android:layout_height="40dp"
Also to modify :
android:scaleType="centerInside" to android:scaleType="fitXY"
Also add :
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
Use scaletype attribute of imageview.
android:scaleType="centerCrop"

Don't use Frame Layout here because Frame Layout used to show single view.
I see you are using fixed dp values for layout_width and layout_height.
dp means density independent pixel. It is not a size independent pixel.
The dp makes sure your layout looks the same on devices with the same size, but different pixel density. It will not look the same on bigger devices.
If you want it to scale to larger devices you will have to use match_parent and wrap_content.
Use the power of the relative layout to place items on the right side of the screen also.
You can also make separate layout files for differently sized devices. So you can customise it depending on the size.
You do this by making a new layout folder named for example layout-sw600dp/ (or any number you want) which will only be used on devices that have at least the width you specified (so 600dp in this example).
Make sure your layout file has the same name in this folder as in the normal folder.
You can find very useful information about this in the documentation:
here and here.
You can try using a GridLayout. This way, the image columns will fill the whole screen.
you can't work with dp and expect the same result on different
if you want same display for all the devices you can work with weightSum and weight here is a little example
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:weightSum="2">
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/layout1"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1" />
<LinearLayout
android:id="#+id/layout2"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_weight="1" />
</LinearLayout>
I need to put two images one below the other in the center of the screen. They need to be in the center. the images will keep changing depending on the code so how do i get the images to work on all screens without moving or the size increasing or decreasing?
I tried using grid view but it seems too much code for two images. it works but is there anything more efficient?
For this type of design i always create a center point on screen,check below code -
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/image1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_above="#+id/center_point" />
<View
android:id="#+id/center_point"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="0dp"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"/>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/image2"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:layout_below="#+id/center_point"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />
it will surely works.
All the best
If u have always only 2 images, you can set it in xml file like that:
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" >
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/image1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerInParent="true" />
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/image2"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
android:layout_alignParentBottom="true" />
</RelativeLayout>
First image centers in parent and the second one centers horizontal and also aligns bottom of the screen.
Good luck.
Here this code may help you.You must create one LinearLayout and set him vertical orientation and layout_gravity = center horizontal.After that create two image views which are automatic position in center of the screen one below other.I hope this will help you.Happy coding :)
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal">
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/image_view_two"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher"
/>
<ImageView
android:id="#+id/image_view_one"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher" />
</LinearLayout>
Make a vertical Linear-layout that contains both of your ImageViews and then set an equal layout_weight for both of them. Set the layout_centerInParent true for your Linear_layout
<LinearLayout
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/lock_layout_keypad"
android:orientation="vertical"
android:layout_centerInParent="true"
android:layout_marginBottom="4dp">
<ImageView
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/imageView"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />
<ImageView
android:layout_weight="1"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:id="#+id/imageView2"
android:src="#drawable/ic_launcher"
android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
android:layout_centerHorizontal="true" />
</LinearLayout>
You can remove android:layout_weight.
I'm developing an android app that contains two image buttons, these image buttons seem to be frameless or don't have bounds around them , look at the following figures:
instead, i want to make the buttons look like if they have bounds on their edges, like the following figure:
and that's my XML code:
<LinearLayout
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:orientation="horizontal" >
<ImageButton
android:contentDescription="#string/minus"
android:id="#+id/mines"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="fill_parent"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:padding="10dp"
android:background="#21417D"
android:scaleType="centerInside"
android:src="#drawable/ac_button_minus" />
<ImageButton
android:contentDescription="#string/plus"
android:id="#+id/plus"
android:layout_width="wrap_content"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
android:layout_gravity="center"
android:layout_weight="1"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:layout_marginRight="15dp"
android:padding="10dp"
android:background="#21417D"
android:scaleType="centerInside"
android:src="#drawable/ac_button_plus" />
</LinearLayout>
If you just want the spacing between the buttons use the attribute android:layout_margin in your xml, you can specify individual sides too so e.g.
<ImageButton
...
android:layout_marginLeft="16dp"
...
android:scaleType="centerInside"
android:src="#drawable/ac_button_minus" />
