How to stretch the image in ImageView?

Question

I have an ImageView and I need to load jpg image from SD card into this view. I have following code:

mImageView.setImageBitmap(SDCardUtilities.getBitmapFromSDCard(item));

getBitmapFromSDCard is my function that only make Bitmap from file on sdcard. But often an image is small and doesn't fill the ImageView fully. How can I stretch the image that it will be fill whole ImageView?

Try something like this:

mImageView.setScaleType(ImageView.ScaleType.FIT_XY);
mImageView.setImageBitmap(SDCardUtilities.getBitmapFromSDCard(item));

I didn't personally test this, but I'm pretty sure that it will do what you want. If it doesn't, let me know your results and we can adjust it.

BTW, I found this information here and you can see a list of possible values that can be passed to setScaleType here.

Never having tried this, i'd say: Set the scaletype for your ImageView, try FIT_CENTER for example.
