How to resize UIImageView based on UIImage's size/ratio in Swift 3?

I spent many hours trying to find a solution to the same problem you're having and this is the only solution that worked for me (Swift 4, xCode 9.2):

class ScaledHeightImageView: UIImageView {

    override var intrinsicContentSize: CGSize {

        if let myImage = self.image {
            let myImageWidth = myImage.size.width
            let myImageHeight = myImage.size.height
            let myViewWidth = self.frame.size.width

            let ratio = myViewWidth/myImageWidth
            let scaledHeight = myImageHeight * ratio

            return CGSize(width: myViewWidth, height: scaledHeight)
        }

        return CGSize(width: -1.0, height: -1.0)
    }

}

Add the class to the project and set the UIImageView to the custom class ScaledHeightImageView. The image view's content mode is Aspect Fit.

My problem is the same as the one stated in this post. Inside my prototype TableViewCell's ContentView, I have a vertical StackView constrained to each edge. Inside the StackView there was a Label, ImageView and another Label. Having the ImageView set to AspectFit was not enough. The image would be the proper size and proportions but the ImageView didn't wrap the actual image leaving a bunch of extra space between the image and label (just like in the image above). The ImageView height seemed to match height of the original image rather than the height of the resized image (after aspectFit did it's job). Other solutions I found didn't completely resolve the problem for various reasons. I hope this helps someone.

I spent many hours on this, and I finally got a solution that worked for me (Swift 3):

• in IB, I set UIImageView's 'Content Mode' to 'Aspect Fit'
• in IB, I set UIImageView's width constraint to be equal to whatever you want (in my case, the view's width)
• in IB, I set UIImageView's height constraint to be equal to 0, and create a referencing outlet for it (say, constraintHeight)

Then, when I need to display the image, I simply write the following (sampled from answers above):

let ratio = image.size.width / image.size.height
let newHeight = myImageView.frame.width / ratio
constraintHeight.constant = newHeight
view.layoutIfNeeded()

Basically, this ensures that the image fills the UIImageView's width and forces the UIImageView's height to be equal to the image's height after it scaled

It looks like you want to resize an ImageView according to the image ratio and the container view's size, here is the example in Swift (Sorry,the former answer with a bug, I fixed it):

   let containerView = UIView(frame: CGRect(x:0,y:0,width:320,height:500))
   let imageView = UIImageView()

    if let image = UIImage(named: "a_image") {
        let ratio = image.size.width / image.size.height
        if containerView.frame.width > containerView.frame.height {
            let newHeight = containerView.frame.width / ratio
            imageView.frame.size = CGSize(width: containerView.frame.width, height: newHeight)
        }
        else{
            let newWidth = containerView.frame.height * ratio
            imageView.frame.size = CGSize(width: newWidth, height: containerView.frame.height)
        }
    }
