Question

I\'m looking for a solution for the following problem: how to change the size of a Bitmapto a fixed size (for example 512x128). The aspect ratio of the bitmap conte

Answer 1

Try this, calculate the ratio and then rescale.

private Bitmap scaleBitmap(Bitmap bm) {
    int width = bm.getWidth();
    int height = bm.getHeight();

    Log.v("Pictures", "Width and height are " + width + "--" + height);

    if (width > height) {
        // landscape
        float ratio = (float) width / maxWidth;
        width = maxWidth;
        height = (int)(height / ratio);
    } else if (height > width) {
        // portrait
        float ratio = (float) height / maxHeight;
        height = maxHeight;
        width = (int)(width / ratio);
    } else {
        // square
        height = maxHeight;
        width = maxWidth;
    }

    Log.v("Pictures", "after scaling Width and height are " + width + "--" + height);

    bm = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bm, width, height, true);
    return bm;
}
