Trying to get the display size of an image in an ImageView

I'm trying to get the real size of an image displayed in an image view. Actually my image is larger than the screen and the imageview is resizing the image to diplay it. I'm looking for this new size.

I've tried to override the onDraw method of the ImageView in a custom view but I'm not getting the correct height and width...

public class LandImageView extends ImageView
{
    public LandImageView( Context context )
    {
        super( context );
    }

    public LandImageView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs)
    {
        super(context, attrs);
    }

    public LandImageView(Context context, AttributeSet attrs, int defStyle)
    {
        super(context, attrs, defStyle);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onDraw( Canvas canvas )
    {
        super.onDraw( canvas );

        int test = this.getWidth();
        int test2 = this.getHeight();
    }

    @Override
    protected void onSizeChanged(int w, int h, int oldw, int oldh)
    {
        super.onSizeChanged(w, h, oldw, oldh);
    }
}

Do you have any clues ?


None of the answers here actually answer the question:

From a Bitmap of any size displayed by an ImageView, find the actual dimensions of the displayed image as opposed to the dimensions of the supplied Bitmap.

Namely:

  • Using ImageView.getDrawable().getInstrinsicWidth() and getIntrinsicHeight() will both return the original dimensions.
  • Getting the Drawable through ImageView.getDrawable() and casting it to a BitmapDrawable, then using BitmapDrawable.getBitmap().getWidth() and getHeight() also returns the original image and its dimensions.

The only way to get the actual dimensions of the displayed image is by extracting and using the transformation Matrix used to display the image as it is shown. This must be done after the measuring stage and the example here shows it called in an Override of onMeasure() for a custom ImageView:

public class SizeAwareImageView extends ImageView {

    public SizeAwareImageView(Context context) {
        super(context);
    }

    @Override
    protected void onMeasure(int widthMeasureSpec, int heightMeasureSpec) {
        super.onMeasure(widthMeasureSpec, heightMeasureSpec);

        // Get image matrix values and place them in an array
        float[] f = new float[9];
        getImageMatrix().getValues(f);

        // Extract the scale values using the constants (if aspect ratio maintained, scaleX == scaleY)
        final float scaleX = f[Matrix.MSCALE_X];
        final float scaleY = f[Matrix.MSCALE_Y];

        // Get the drawable (could also get the bitmap behind the drawable and getWidth/getHeight)
        final Drawable d = getDrawable();
        final int origW = d.getIntrinsicWidth();
        final int origH = d.getIntrinsicHeight();

        // Calculate the actual dimensions
        final int actW = Math.round(origW * scaleX);
        final int actH = Math.round(origH * scaleY);

        Log.e("DBG", "["+origW+","+origH+"] -> ["+actW+","+actH+"] & scales: x="+scaleX+" y="+scaleY);
    }

}  

Note: To get the image transformation Matrix from code in general (like in an Activity), the function is ImageView.getImageMatrix() - e.g. myImageView.getImageMatrix()


I extended B T's answer to produce a static method from it, and to include image left and top positions into the ImageView :

/**
 * Returns the bitmap position inside an imageView.
 * @param imageView source ImageView
 * @return 0: left, 1: top, 2: width, 3: height
 */
public static int[] getBitmapPositionInsideImageView(ImageView imageView) {
    int[] ret = new int[4];

    if (imageView == null || imageView.getDrawable() == null)
        return ret;

    // Get image dimensions
    // Get image matrix values and place them in an array
    float[] f = new float[9];
    imageView.getImageMatrix().getValues(f);

    // Extract the scale values using the constants (if aspect ratio maintained, scaleX == scaleY)
    final float scaleX = f[Matrix.MSCALE_X];
    final float scaleY = f[Matrix.MSCALE_Y];

    // Get the drawable (could also get the bitmap behind the drawable and getWidth/getHeight)
    final Drawable d = imageView.getDrawable();
    final int origW = d.getIntrinsicWidth();
    final int origH = d.getIntrinsicHeight();

    // Calculate the actual dimensions
    final int actW = Math.round(origW * scaleX);
    final int actH = Math.round(origH * scaleY);

    ret[2] = actW;
    ret[3] = actH;

    // Get image position
    // We assume that the image is centered into ImageView
    int imgViewW = imageView.getWidth();
    int imgViewH = imageView.getHeight();

    int top = (int) (imgViewH - actH)/2;
    int left = (int) (imgViewW - actW)/2;

    ret[0] = left;
    ret[1] = top;

    return ret;
}

I found that WarrenFaith's suggestion of using setAdjustViewBounds worked, but I had to change the ImageView's layout_width/layout_height to 'wrap_content' (with 'match_parent', setAdjustViewBounds did nothing). To get the height/width/gravity behaviour I wanted, I had to wrap the ImageView in a FrameLayout:

<FrameLayout
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    >

    <ImageView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_gravity="center"
        android:scaleType="fitCenter"
        android:adjustViewBounds="true"
        />
</FrameLayout>

After doing this, the ImageView's dimensions (as returned by getWidth() and getHeight()) matched the display size of the image.
