I am taking an image and drawing it to the screen using canvas. I want to scale it based on the screen size.
This is what I tried, but it cuts off a large chunk of the image:
DisplayMetrics metrics = context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics();
int width = metrics.widthPixels;
int height = metrics.heightPixels;
Bitmap bitmap = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(context.getResources(),R.drawable.myimage);
bitmap = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bitmap, width, height, false);
Rect frameToDraw = new Rect(0, 0, width, height);
RectF whereToDraw = new RectF(0, 0, width, height);
canvas.drawBitmap(bitmap,frameToDraw,whereToDraw, paint);
I know I am doing a few things wrong, but I'm not exactly sure what. This code causes the image to exceed the size of the screen. I want it to be scaled to the size of the screen. I'll be drawing smaller images in too that I also will need to scale according to the size of the screen, though not to the full screen.
Rect frameToDraw = new Rect(0, 0, width, height);
RectF whereToDraw = new RectF(0, 0, width, height);
Take a look at the above code. Your are not scaling the picture. You are simply taking a part of the picture (in this case the whole picture) and pasting it somewhere (in this case the size of the original picture).
The width and heigth of the frameToDraw
rectangle should be the width and height of your picture.
DisplayMetrics metrics = context.getResources().getDisplayMetrics();
int width = metrics.widthPixels;
int height = metrics.heightPixels;
If you get your width and height like this, you aren't going to take the size of any toolbar/status bar/navigation bar into account.
If you are coding an app that has a View
, inflate a layout with an ImageView
that is full size (i.e. match_parent
), then use the scaleType
to scale/fit/crop the image how you want.
dont need creat scale bitmap, instead:
Bitmap frameBuffer = Bitmap.createBitmap(frameBufferWidth,frameBufferHeight, Config.RGB_565);
frameBufferWidth
and frameBufferHeight
are the sizes that you want to make your app base on those(for example 480*800)
then simply add this code:
Rect dstRect = new Rect();
canvas.getClipBounds(dstRect); // get canvas size base screen size
canvas.drawBitmap(framebuffer, null, dstRect, null);
it draw your final bitmap according to screen size
