[android] Fit image into ImageView, keep aspect ratio and then resize ImageView to image dimensions?

How to fit an image of random size to an ImageView?
When:

• Initially ImageView dimensions are 250dp * 250dp
• The image's larger dimension should be scaled up/down to 250dp
• The image should keep its aspect ratio
• The ImageView dimensions should match scaled image's dimensions after scaling

E.g. for an image of 100*150, the image and the ImageView should be 166*250.
E.g. for an image of 150*100, the image and the ImageView should be 250*166.

If I set the bounds as

<ImageView
    android:id="@+id/picture"
    android:layout_width="250dp"
    android:layout_height="250dp"
    android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
    android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
    android:adjustViewBounds="true" />

images fit properly in the ImageView, but the ImageView is always 250dp * 250dp.

try adding android:scaleType="fitXY" to your ImageView.

I needed to have an ImageView and an Bitmap, so the Bitmap is scaled to ImageView size, and size of the ImageView is the same of the scaled Bitmap :).

I was looking through this post for how to do it, and finally did what I want, not the way described here though.

<FrameLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
android:id="@+id/acpt_frag_root"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:background="@color/imageBackground"
android:orientation="vertical">

<ImageView
    android:id="@+id/acpt_image"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="center"
    android:adjustViewBounds="true"
    android:layout_margin="@dimen/document_editor_image_margin"
    android:background="@color/imageBackground"
    android:elevation="@dimen/document_image_elevation" />

and then in onCreateView method

@Nullable
@Override
public View onCreateView(LayoutInflater inflater, @Nullable ViewGroup container, @Nullable Bundle savedInstanceState) {

    View view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.fragment_scanner_acpt, null);

    progress = view.findViewById(R.id.progress);

    imageView = view.findViewById(R.id.acpt_image);
    imageView.setImageBitmap( bitmap );

    imageView.getViewTreeObserver().addOnGlobalLayoutListener(()->
        layoutImageView()
    );

    return view;
}

and then layoutImageView() code

private void layoutImageView(){

    float[] matrixv = new float[ 9 ];

    imageView.getImageMatrix().getValues(matrixv);

    int w = (int) ( matrixv[Matrix.MSCALE_X] * bitmap.getWidth() );
    int h = (int) ( matrixv[Matrix.MSCALE_Y] * bitmap.getHeight() );

    imageView.setMaxHeight(h);
    imageView.setMaxWidth(w);

}

And the result is that image fits inside perfectly, keeping aspect ratio, and doesn't have extra leftover pixels from ImageView when the Bitmap is inside.

Result

It's important ImageView to have wrap_content and adjustViewBounds to true, then setMaxWidth and setMaxHeight will work, this is written in the source code of ImageView,

/*An optional argument to supply a maximum height for this view. Only valid if
 * {@link #setAdjustViewBounds(boolean)} has been set to true. To set an image to be a
 * maximum of 100 x 100 while preserving the original aspect ratio, do the following: 1) set
 * adjustViewBounds to true 2) set maxWidth and maxHeight to 100 3) set the height and width
 * layout params to WRAP_CONTENT. */

The Best solution that works in most cases is

Here is an example:

<ImageView android:id="@+id/avatar"
           android:layout_width="match_parent"
           android:layout_height="match_parent"
           android:scaleType="fitXY"/>

Edited Jarno Argillanders answer:

How to fit Image with your Width and Height:

1) Initialize ImageView and set Image:

iv = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.iv_image);
iv.setImageBitmap(image);

2) Now resize:

scaleImage(iv);

Edited scaleImage method: (you can replace EXPECTED bounding values)

private void scaleImage(ImageView view) {
    Drawable drawing = view.getDrawable();
    if (drawing == null) {
        return;
    }
    Bitmap bitmap = ((BitmapDrawable) drawing).getBitmap();

    int width = bitmap.getWidth();
    int height = bitmap.getHeight();
    int xBounding = ((View) view.getParent()).getWidth();//EXPECTED WIDTH
    int yBounding = ((View) view.getParent()).getHeight();//EXPECTED HEIGHT

    float xScale = ((float) xBounding) / width;
    float yScale = ((float) yBounding) / height;

    Matrix matrix = new Matrix();
    matrix.postScale(xScale, yScale);

    Bitmap scaledBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmap, 0, 0, width, height, matrix, true);
    width = scaledBitmap.getWidth();
    height = scaledBitmap.getHeight();
    BitmapDrawable result = new BitmapDrawable(context.getResources(), scaledBitmap);

    view.setImageDrawable(result);

    LinearLayout.LayoutParams params = (LinearLayout.LayoutParams) view.getLayoutParams(); 
    params.width = width;
    params.height = height;
    view.setLayoutParams(params);
}

And .xml:

<ImageView
    android:id="@+id/iv_image"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal" />

This did it for my case.

             <ImageView
                android:layout_width="match_parent"
                android:layout_height="wrap_content"
                android:layout_centerHorizontal="true"
                android:scaleType="centerCrop"
                android:adjustViewBounds="true"
                />

<ImageView android:layout_width="match_parent"
           android:layout_height="wrap_content"
           android:scaleType="centerCrop"
           android:adjustViewBounds="true"/>

I am using a very simple solution. Here my code:

imageView.setLayoutParams(new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,LinearLayout.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT));
imageView.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_XY);
imageView.getLayoutParams().height = imageView.getLayoutParams().width;
imageView.setMinimumHeight(imageView.getLayoutParams().width);

My pictures are added dynamically in a gridview. When you make these settings to the imageview, the picture can be automatically displayed in 1:1 ratio.

I needed to get this done in a constraint layout with Picasso, so I munged together some of the above answers and came up with this solution (I already know the aspect ratio of the image I'm loading, so that helps):

Called in my activity code somewhere after setContentView(...)

protected void setBoxshotBackgroundImage() {
    ImageView backgroundImageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.background_image_view);

    if(backgroundImageView != null) {
        DisplayMetrics displayMetrics = new DisplayMetrics();
        getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(displayMetrics);
        int width = displayMetrics.widthPixels;
        int height = (int) Math.round(width * ImageLoader.BOXART_HEIGHT_ASPECT_RATIO);

        // we adjust the height of this element, as the width is already pinned to the parent in xml
        backgroundImageView.getLayoutParams().height = height;

        // implement your Picasso loading code here
    } else {
        // fallback if no element in layout...
    }
}

In my XML

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout
xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
tools:layout_editor_absoluteY="0dp"
tools:layout_editor_absoluteX="0dp">

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/background_image_view"
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="0dp"
        android:scaleType="fitStart"
        app:srcCompat="@color/background"
        android:adjustViewBounds="true"
        tools:layout_editor_absoluteY="0dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="0dp"
        android:layout_marginBottom="0dp"
        android:layout_marginRight="0dp"
        android:layout_marginLeft="0dp"
        app:layout_constraintRight_toRightOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintLeft_toLeftOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"/>

    <!-- other elements of this layout here... -->

</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>

Note the lack of a constraintBottom_toBottomOf attribute. ImageLoader is my own static class for image loading util methods and constants.

Use this code:

<ImageView android:id="@+id/avatar"
           android:layout_width="fill_parent"
           android:layout_height="match_parent"
           android:scaleType="fitXY" />

May not be answer for this specific question, but if someone is, like me, searching for answer how to fit image in ImageView with bounded size (for example, maxWidth) while preserving Aspect Ratio and then get rid of excessive space occupied by ImageView, then the simplest solution is to use the following properties in XML:

    android:scaleType="centerInside"
    android:adjustViewBounds="true"

Quick answer:

<ImageView
        android:id="@+id/imageView"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:scaleType="center"
        android:src="@drawable/yourImage"
        app:layout_constraintBottom_toBottomOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintEnd_toEndOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent" />

The Below code make the bitmap perfectly with same size of the imageview. Get the bitmap image height and width and then calculate the new height and width with the help of imageview's parameters. That give you required image with best aspect ratio.

int currentBitmapWidth = bitMap.getWidth();
int currentBitmapHeight = bitMap.getHeight();

int ivWidth = imageView.getWidth();
int ivHeight = imageView.getHeight();
int newWidth = ivWidth;

newHeight = (int) Math.floor((double) currentBitmapHeight *( (double) new_width / (double) currentBitmapWidth));

Bitmap newbitMap = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bitMap, newWidth, newHeight, true);

imageView.setImageBitmap(newbitMap)

enjoy.

Use Simple math to resize the image . either you can resize ImageView or you can resize drawable image than set on ImageView . find the width and height of your bitmap which you want to set on ImageView and call the desired method. suppose your width 500 is greater than height than call method

//250 is the width you want after resize bitmap
Bitmat bmp = BitmapScaler.scaleToFitWidth(bitmap, 250) ;
ImageView image = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.picture);
image.setImageBitmap(bmp);

You use this class for resize bitmap.

public class BitmapScaler{
// Scale and maintain aspect ratio given a desired width
// BitmapScaler.scaleToFitWidth(bitmap, 100);
 public static Bitmap scaleToFitWidth(Bitmap b, int width)
  {
    float factor = width / (float) b.getWidth();
    return Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(b, width, (int) (b.getHeight() * factor), true);
  }


  // Scale and maintain aspect ratio given a desired height
  // BitmapScaler.scaleToFitHeight(bitmap, 100);
  public static Bitmap scaleToFitHeight(Bitmap b, int height)
  {
    float factor = height / (float) b.getHeight();
    return Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(b, (int) (b.getWidth() * factor), height, true);
   }
 }

xml code is

<ImageView
android:id="@+id/picture"
android:layout_width="250dp"
android:layout_height="250dp"
android:layout_gravity="center_horizontal"
android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:scaleType="fitcenter" />

if it's not working for you then replace android:background with android:src

android:src will play the major trick

    <ImageView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:adjustViewBounds="true"
    android:scaleType="fitCenter"
    android:src="@drawable/bg_hc" />

it's working fine like a charm

this can all be done using XML... the other methods seem pretty complicated. Anyway, you just set the height to what ever you want in dp, then set the width to wrap content or visa versa. Use scaleType fitCenter to adjust the size of the image.

<ImageView
    android:layout_height="200dp"
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:scaleType="fitCenter"
    android:adjustViewBounds="true"
    android:src="@mipmap/ic_launcher"
    android:layout_below="@+id/title"
    android:layout_margin="5dip"
    android:id="@+id/imageView1">

After searching for a day, I think this is the easiest solution:

imageView.getLayoutParams().width = 250;
imageView.getLayoutParams().height = 250;
imageView.setAdjustViewBounds(true);
