how can I get the scale factor of a UIImageView who's mode is AspectFit?
That is, I have a UIImageView with mode AspectFit. The image (square) is scaled to my UIImageView frame which is fine.
If I want to get the amount of scale that was used (e.g. 0.78 or whatever) how can I get this directly?
I don't want to have to compare say a parent view width to the UIImageView width as the calculation would have to take into account orientation, noting I'm scaling a square image into a rectangular view. Hence why I was after a direct way to query the UIImageView to find out.
EDIT: I need it to work for iPhone or iPad deployment as well.
I've written a UIImageView category for that:
UIImageView+ContentScale.h
#import <Foundation/Foundation.h>
@interface UIImageView (UIImageView_ContentScale)
-(CGFloat)contentScaleFactor;
@end
UIImageView+ContentScale.m
#import "UIImageView+ContentScale.h"
@implementation UIImageView (UIImageView_ContentScale)
-(CGFloat)contentScaleFactor
{
CGFloat widthScale = self.bounds.size.width / self.image.size.width;
CGFloat heightScale = self.bounds.size.height / self.image.size.height;
if (self.contentMode == UIViewContentModeScaleToFill) {
return (widthScale==heightScale) ? widthScale : NAN;
}
if (self.contentMode == UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFit) {
return MIN(widthScale, heightScale);
}
if (self.contentMode == UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFill) {
return MAX(widthScale, heightScale);
}
return 1.0;
}
@end
Well you could do something like
CGFloat widthScale = imageView.image.size.width / imageView.frame.size.width;
CGFloat heightScale = imageView.image.size.height / imageView.frame.size.height;
Let me know if that works for you.
