How to Resize a Bitmap in Android?

Question

I have a bitmap taken of a Base64 String from my remote database, (encodedImage is the string representing the image with Base64):

profileImage = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.profileImage);

byte[] imageAsBytes=null;
try {
    imageAsBytes = Base64.decode(encodedImage.getBytes());
} catch (IOException e) {e.printStackTrace();}

profileImage.setImageBitmap(
    BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(imageAsBytes, 0, imageAsBytes.length)
);

profileImage is my ImageView

Ok, but I have to resize this image before showing it on my ImageView of my layout. I have to resize it to 120x120.

Can someone tell me the code to resize it?

The examples I found could not be applied to a base64 string obtained bitmap.

Answer 1

Change:

profileImage.setImageBitmap(
    BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(imageAsBytes, 0, imageAsBytes.length)

To:

Bitmap b = BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(imageAsBytes, 0, imageAsBytes.length)
profileImage.setImageBitmap(Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(b, 120, 120, false));

Answer 2

  public Bitmap scaleBitmap(Bitmap mBitmap) {
        int ScaleSize = 250;//max Height or width to Scale
        int width = mBitmap.getWidth();
        int height = mBitmap.getHeight();
        float excessSizeRatio = width > height ? width / ScaleSize : height / ScaleSize;
         Bitmap bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(
                mBitmap, 0, 0,(int) (width/excessSizeRatio),(int) (height/excessSizeRatio));
        //mBitmap.recycle(); if you are not using mBitmap Obj
        return bitmap;
    }

Bitmap Resize based on Any Display size

public Bitmap bitmapResize(Bitmap imageBitmap) {

    Bitmap bitmap = imageBitmap;
    float heightbmp = bitmap.getHeight();
    float widthbmp = bitmap.getWidth();

    // Get Screen width
    DisplayMetrics displaymetrics = new DisplayMetrics();
    this.getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay().getMetrics(displaymetrics);
    float height = displaymetrics.heightPixels / 3;
    float width = displaymetrics.widthPixels / 3;

    int convertHeight = (int) hight, convertWidth = (int) width;

    // higher
    if (heightbmp > height) {
        convertHeight = (int) height - 20;
        bitmap = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bitmap, convertWidth,
                convertHighet, true);
    }

    // wider
    if (widthbmp > width) {
        convertWidth = (int) width - 20;
        bitmap = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bitmap, convertWidth,
                convertHeight, true);
    }

    return bitmap;
}

Answer 4

Someone asked how to keep aspect ratio in this situation:

Calculate the factor you are using for scaling and use it for both dimensions. Let´s say you want an image to be 20% of the screen in height

int scaleToUse = 20; // this will be our percentage
Bitmap bmp = BitmapFactory.decodeResource(
    context.getResources(), R.drawable.mypng);
int sizeY = screenResolution.y * scaleToUse / 100;
int sizeX = bmp.getWidth() * sizeY / bmp.getHeight();
Bitmap scaled = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bmp, sizeX, sizeY, false);

for getting the screen resolution you have this solution: Get screen dimensions in pixels

Answer 5

profileImage.setImageBitmap(
    Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(
        BitmapFactory.decodeByteArray(imageAsBytes, 0, imageAsBytes.length), 
        80, 80, false
    )
);

Answer 6

public Bitmap getResizedBitmap(Bitmap bm, int newWidth, int newHeight) {
    int width = bm.getWidth();
    int height = bm.getHeight();
    float scaleWidth = ((float) newWidth) / width;
    float scaleHeight = ((float) newHeight) / height;
    // CREATE A MATRIX FOR THE MANIPULATION
    Matrix matrix = new Matrix();
    // RESIZE THE BIT MAP
    matrix.postScale(scaleWidth, scaleHeight);

    // "RECREATE" THE NEW BITMAP
    Bitmap resizedBitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(
        bm, 0, 0, width, height, matrix, false);
    bm.recycle();
    return resizedBitmap;
}

EDIT: as suggested by by @aveschini, I have added bm.recycle(); for memory leaks. Please note that in case if you are using the previous object for some other purposes, then handle accordingly.
