1. I can\'t find the exact meaning of ImageView.ScaleTyp

Answer 1

As per my understanding, Use below details for each ImageView's ScaleType attributes

center

Displays the image centered in the view with no scaling.

centerCrop

Scales the image such that both the x and y dimensions are greater than or equal to the view, while maintaining the image aspect ratio; crops any part of the image that exceeds the size of the view; centers the image in the view.

centerInside

Scales the image to fit inside the view, while maintaining the image aspect ratio. If the image is already smaller than the view, then this is the same as center.

fitCenter

Scales the image to fit inside the view, while maintaining the image aspect ratio. At least one axis will exactly match the view, and the result is centered inside the view.

fitStart

Same as fitCenter but aligned to the top left of the view.

fitEnd

Same as fitCenter but aligned to the bottom right of the view.

fitXY

Scales the x and y dimensions to exactly match the view size; does not maintain the image aspect ratio.

matrix

Scales the image using a supplied Matrix class. The matrix can be supplied using the setImageMatrix method. A Matrix class can be used to apply transformations such as rotations to an image.
