Scaled Bitmap maintaining aspect ratio

Question

I would like to scale a Bitmap to a runtime dependant width and height, where the aspect ratio is maintained and the Bitmap fills the entire width

Answer 1

It can also be done by calculating the ratio yourself, like this.

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

My solution was this, which maintains aspect ratio, and requires only one size, for example if you have a 1920*1080 and an 1080*1920 image and you want to resize it to 1280, the first will be 1280*720 and the second will be 720*1280

public static Bitmap resizeBitmap(final Bitmap temp, final int size) {
        if (size > 0) {
            int width = temp.getWidth();
            int height = temp.getHeight();
            float ratioBitmap = (float) width / (float) height;
            int finalWidth = size;
            int finalHeight = size;
            if (ratioBitmap < 1) {
                finalWidth = (int) ((float) size * ratioBitmap);
            } else {
                finalHeight = (int) ((float) size / ratioBitmap);
            }
            return Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(temp, finalWidth, finalHeight, true);
        } else {
            return temp;
        }
    }

What about this:

Bitmap background = Bitmap.createBitmap((int)width, (int)height, Config.ARGB_8888);

float originalWidth = originalImage.getWidth(); 
float originalHeight = originalImage.getHeight();

Canvas canvas = new Canvas(background);

float scale = width / originalWidth;

float xTranslation = 0.0f;
float yTranslation = (height - originalHeight * scale) / 2.0f;

Matrix transformation = new Matrix();
transformation.postTranslate(xTranslation, yTranslation);
transformation.preScale(scale, scale);

Paint paint = new Paint();
paint.setFilterBitmap(true);

canvas.drawBitmap(originalImage, transformation, paint);

return background;

I added a paint to filter the scaled bitmap.

None of the above answers were worked for me and I just created a method which sets all of the dimensions into the desired ones with painting the empty area to black. Here is my method:

/**
 * Scale the image preserving the ratio
 * @param imageToScale Image to be scaled
 * @param destinationWidth Destination width after scaling
 * @param destinationHeight Destination height after scaling
 * @return New scaled bitmap preserving the ratio
 */
public static Bitmap scalePreserveRatio(Bitmap imageToScale, int destinationWidth,
        int destinationHeight) {
    if (destinationHeight > 0 && destinationWidth > 0 && imageToScale != null) {
        int width = imageToScale.getWidth();
        int height = imageToScale.getHeight();

        //Calculate the max changing amount and decide which dimension to use
        float widthRatio = (float) destinationWidth / (float) width;
        float heightRatio = (float) destinationHeight / (float) height;

        //Use the ratio that will fit the image into the desired sizes
        int finalWidth = (int)Math.floor(width * widthRatio);
        int finalHeight = (int)Math.floor(height * widthRatio);
        if (finalWidth > destinationWidth || finalHeight > destinationHeight) {
            finalWidth = (int)Math.floor(width * heightRatio);
            finalHeight = (int)Math.floor(height * heightRatio);
        }

        //Scale given bitmap to fit into the desired area
        imageToScale = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(imageToScale, finalWidth, finalHeight, true);

        //Created a bitmap with desired sizes
        Bitmap scaledImage = Bitmap.createBitmap(destinationWidth, destinationHeight, Bitmap.Config.ARGB_8888);
        Canvas canvas = new Canvas(scaledImage);

        //Draw background color
        Paint paint = new Paint();
        paint.setColor(Color.BLACK);
        paint.setStyle(Paint.Style.FILL);
        canvas.drawRect(0, 0, canvas.getWidth(), canvas.getHeight(), paint);

        //Calculate the ratios and decide which part will have empty areas (width or height)
        float ratioBitmap = (float)finalWidth / (float)finalHeight;
        float destinationRatio = (float) destinationWidth / (float) destinationHeight;
        float left = ratioBitmap >= destinationRatio ? 0 : (float)(destinationWidth - finalWidth) / 2;
        float top = ratioBitmap < destinationRatio ? 0: (float)(destinationHeight - finalHeight) / 2;
        canvas.drawBitmap(imageToScale, left, top, null);

        return scaledImage;
    } else {
        return imageToScale;
    }
}

For example;

Let's say you have an image as 100 x 100 but the desired size is 300x50, then this method will convert your image to 50 x 50 and paint it into a new image which has dimensions as 300 x 50 (and empty fileds will be black).

Another example: let's say you have an image as 600 x 1000 and the desired sizes are 300 x 50 again, then your image will be converted into 30 x 50 and painted into a newly created image which has sizes as 300 x 50.

I think this is what it must be, Rs.

Answer 5

This is an awesome library from ArthurHub to handle the image crops both programmatically and interactively if you don't want to reinvent the wheel.

But if you prefer a non bloated version like me.., the internal function shown here is a rather sophisticated to perform Image Scaling with few standard options

/**
 * Resize the given bitmap to the given width/height by the given option.<br>
 */

enum RequestSizeOptions {
    RESIZE_FIT,
    RESIZE_INSIDE,
    RESIZE_EXACT
}

static Bitmap resizeBitmap(Bitmap bitmap, int reqWidth, int reqHeight, RequestSizeOptions options) {
    try {
        if (reqWidth > 0 && reqHeight > 0 && (options == RequestSizeOptions.RESIZE_FIT ||
                options == RequestSizeOptions.RESIZE_INSIDE ||
                options == RequestSizeOptions.RESIZE_EXACT)) {

            Bitmap resized = null;
            if (options == RequestSizeOptions.RESIZE_EXACT) {
                resized = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bitmap, reqWidth, reqHeight, false);
            } else {
                int width = bitmap.getWidth();
                int height = bitmap.getHeight();
                float scale = Math.max(width / (float) reqWidth, height / (float) reqHeight);
                if (scale > 1 || options == RequestSizeOptions.RESIZE_FIT) {
                    resized = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bitmap, (int) (width / scale), (int) (height / scale), false);
                }
            }
            if (resized != null) {
                if (resized != bitmap) {
                    bitmap.recycle();
                }
                return resized;
            }
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {
        Log.w("AIC", "Failed to resize cropped image, return bitmap before resize", e);
    }
    return bitmap;
}

Added RESIZE_CROP to Gowrav's answer.

   enum RequestSizeOptions {
    RESIZE_FIT,
    RESIZE_INSIDE,
    RESIZE_EXACT,
    RESIZE_CENTRE_CROP
}
static Bitmap resizeBitmap(Bitmap bitmap, int reqWidth, int reqHeight, RequestSizeOptions options) {
    try {
        if (reqWidth > 0 && reqHeight > 0 && (options == RequestSizeOptions.RESIZE_FIT ||
                options == RequestSizeOptions.RESIZE_INSIDE ||
                options == RequestSizeOptions.RESIZE_EXACT || options == RequestSizeOptions.RESIZE_CENTRE_CROP)) {

            Bitmap resized = null;
            if (options == RequestSizeOptions.RESIZE_EXACT) {
                resized = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bitmap, reqWidth, reqHeight, false);
            } else {
                int width = bitmap.getWidth();
                int height = bitmap.getHeight();
                float scale = Math.max(width / (float) reqWidth, height / (float) reqHeight);
                if (scale > 1 || options == RequestSizeOptions.RESIZE_FIT) {
                    resized = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bitmap, (int) (width / scale), (int) (height / scale), false);
                }
                if (scale > 1 || options == RequestSizeOptions.RESIZE_CENTRE_CROP) {
                    int smaller_side = (height-width)>0?width:height;
                    int half_smaller_side = smaller_side/2;
                    Rect initialRect = new Rect(0,0,width,height);
                    Rect finalRect = new Rect(initialRect.centerX()-half_smaller_side,initialRect.centerY()-half_smaller_side,
                            initialRect.centerX()+half_smaller_side,initialRect.centerY()+half_smaller_side);
                    bitmap = Bitmap.createBitmap(bitmap,  finalRect.left, finalRect.top, finalRect.width(), finalRect.height(), null, true);
                    //keep in mind we have square as request for cropping, otherwise - it is useless
                    resized = Bitmap.createScaledBitmap(bitmap, reqWidth, reqHeight, false);
                }

            }
            if (resized != null) {
                if (resized != bitmap) {
                    bitmap.recycle();
                }
                return resized;
            }
        }
    } catch (Exception e) {
        Log.w("AIC", "Failed to resize cropped image, return bitmap before resize", e);
    }
    return bitmap;
