ImageView be a square with dynamic width?
The best option is to subclass ImageView
yourself, overriding the measure pass:
public class SquareImageView extends ImageView {
...
@Override
protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);
int width = getMeasuredWidth();
setMeasuredDimension(width, width);
}
...
}
The other answer works fine. This is just an extension of bertucci's solution to make an ImageView with square width and height with respect to xml inflated layout.
Create a class, say a SquareImageView extending ImageView like this,
public class SquareImageView extends ImageView {
public SquareImageView(Context context) {
super(context);
}
public SquareImageView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs) {
super(context, attrs);
}
public SquareImageView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle) {
super(context, attrs, defStyle);
}
@Override
protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);
int width = getMeasuredWidth();
setMeasuredDimension(width, width);
}
}
Now, in your xml do this,
<com.packagepath.tothis.SquareImageView
android:id="@+id/Imageview"
android:layout_width="fill_parent"
android:layout_height="fill_parent" />
If you need an ImageView not to be dynamically created in program, instead, to be fixed in xml, then this implementation will be helpful.
Even more simple:
public class SquareImageView extends ImageView {
...
@Override
protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, widthMeasureSpec);
}
}
