How do you setLayoutParams() for an ImageView?

Solution 1:

You need to set the LayoutParams of the ViewGroup the ImageView is sitting in. For example if your ImageView is inside a LinearLayout, then you create a

LinearLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(30, 30);
yourImageView.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);

This is because it's the parent of the View that needs to know what size to allocate to the View.

Solution 2:

Old thread but I had the same problem now. If anyone encounters this he'll probably find this answer:

LinearLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(30, 30);
yourImageView.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);

This will work only if you add the ImageView as a subView to a LinearLayout. If you add it to a RelativeLayout you will need to call:

RelativeLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = new RelativeLayout.LayoutParams(30, 30);
yourImageView.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
