How can I set an ImageView
's width and height programmatically?
It may be too late but for the sake of others who have the same problem, to set the height of the ImageView
:
imageView.getLayoutParams().height = 20;
Important. If you're setting the height after the layout has already been 'laid out', make sure you also call:
imageView.requestLayout();
If your image view is dynamic, the answer containing getLayout will fail with null-exception.
In that case the correct way is:
LinearLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(100, 100);
iv.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
ImageView
disappears. The trick is to make the layout part (i.e., <this_part_here>.LayoutParams
) be the same as what the parent of the ImageView
is. So, for example, if you've placed your ImageView
within a TableRow
within a TableLayout
, you should have it as TableRow.LayoutParams
.
This simple way to do your task:
setContentView(R.id.main);
ImageView iv = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.left);
int width = 60;
int height = 60;
LinearLayout.LayoutParams parms = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(width,height);
iv.setLayoutParams(parms);
and another way if you want to give screen size in height and width then use below code :
setContentView(R.id.main);
Display display = getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay();
ImageView iv = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.left);
int width = display.getWidth(); // ((display.getWidth()*20)/100)
int height = display.getHeight();// ((display.getHeight()*30)/100)
LinearLayout.LayoutParams parms = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(width,height);
iv.setLayoutParams(parms);
hope use full to you.
int
variables if they won't be re-used elsewhere? Seems unnecessary but I don't know much about it tbh.
I have played this one with pixel
and dp
.
private int dimensionInPixel = 200;
How to set by pixel:
view.getLayoutParams().height = dimensionInPixel;
view.getLayoutParams().width = dimensionInPixel;
view.requestLayout();
How to set by dp:
int dimensionInDp = (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, dimensionInPixel, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
view.getLayoutParams().height = dimensionInDp;
view.getLayoutParams().width = dimensionInDp;
view.requestLayout();
Hope this would help you.
If you need to set your width or height to match_parent
(as big as its parent) or wrap_content
(large enough to fit its own internal content), then ViewGroup.LayoutParams
has this two constants:
imageView.setLayoutParams(
new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(
// or ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT
ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT,
// or ViewGroup.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT,
ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT ) );
Or you can set them like in Hakem Zaied's answer:
imageView.getLayoutParams().width = ViewGroup.LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT;
//...
You can set value for all case.
demoImage.getLayoutParams().height = 150;
demoImage.getLayoutParams().width = 150;
demoImage.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_XY);
Simply create a LayoutParams object and assign it to your imageView
LinearLayout.LayoutParams params = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(150, 150);
imageView.setLayoutParams(params);
The best and easiest way to set a button dynamically is
Button index=new Button(this);
int height = (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 45, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
int width = (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 42, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
The above height and width are in pixels px. 45 being the height in dp and 42 being the width in dp.
index.setLayoutParams(new <Parent>.LayoutParams(width, height));
So, for example, if you've placed your button within a TableRow within a TableLayout, you should have it as TableRow.LayoutParams
index.setLayoutParams(new TableRow.LayoutParams(width, height));
image_view.getLayoutParams().height
returns height value in pixels. You need to get the screen dimensions first to set the values properly.
Display display = context.getWindowManager().getDefaultDisplay();
DisplayMetrics outMetrics = new DisplayMetrics();
display.getMetrics(outMetrics);
int screen_height = outMetrics.heightPixels;
int screen_width = outMetrics.widthPixels;
After you get the screen dimensions, you can set the imageview width&height using proper margins.
view.getLayoutParams().height = screen_height - 140;
view.getLayoutParams().width = screen_width - 130 ;
In order to set the ImageView and Height Programatically, you can do
//Makesure you calculate the density pixel and multiply it with the size of width/height
float dpCalculation = getResources().getDisplayMetrics().density;
your_imageview.getLayoutParams().width = (int) (150 * dpCalculation);
//Set ScaleType according to your choice...
your_imageview.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.CENTER_CROP);
image.setLayoutParams(new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(width, height));
example:
image.setLayoutParams(new ViewGroup.LayoutParams(150, 150));
kotlin
val density = Resources.getSystem().displayMetrics.density
view.layoutParams.height = 20 * density.toInt()
In the scenario where the widget size needs to be set programmatically, ensure the below rules.
Set LayoutParam for the Layout in which you are adding that view. In my case I am adding to TableRow so I had to do TableRow.LayoutParams Follow this code
final float scale = getResources().getDisplayMetrics().density; int dpWidthInPx = (int) (17 * scale); int dpHeightInPx = (int) (17 * scale);
TableRow.LayoutParams deletelayoutParams = new TableRow.LayoutParams(dpWidthInPx, dpHeightInPx); button.setLayoutParams(deletelayoutParams); tableRow.addView(button, 1);
If you want to just fit the image in image view you can use" wrap content" in height and width property with scale-type but if you want to set manually you have to use LayoutParams.
Layoutparams is efficient for setting the layout height and width programmatically.
int newHeight = 150;
int newWidth = 150;
holder.iv_arrow.requestLayout();
holder.iv_arrow.getLayoutParams().height = newHeight;
holder.iv_arrow.getLayoutParams().width = newWidth;
holder.iv_arrow.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_XY);
holder.iv_arrow.setImageResource(R.drawable.video_menu);
Success story sharing
image_view.getLayoutParams().height = RelativeLayout.LayoutParams.WRAP_CONTENT
.. If the view parent isLinearLayout
replace theRelativeLayout
with it
