Question

I want to programmatically change the contrast of bitmap. Till now I have tried this.

private Bitmap adjustedContrast(Bitmap src, double value)
    {
                


        

Answer 1

We can use seek bar to adjust contrast.

MainActivity.java:

import android.graphics.Bitmap;
import android.graphics.BitmapFactory;
import android.graphics.Canvas;
import android.graphics.ColorMatrix;
import android.graphics.ColorMatrixColorFilter;
import android.graphics.Paint;
import android.os.Bundle;
import android.support.v7.app.AppCompatActivity;
import android.widget.ImageView;
import android.widget.SeekBar;
import android.widget.TextView;

public class MainActivity extends AppCompatActivity {

    ImageView imageView;
    SeekBar seekbar;
    TextView textView;

    @Override
    protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
        imageView = (ImageView) findViewById(R.id.image);
        textView = (TextView) findViewById(R.id.label);

        seekbar = (SeekBar) findViewById(R.id.seekbar);
        seekbar.setOnSeekBarChangeListener(new SeekBar.OnSeekBarChangeListener() {
            @Override
            public void onProgressChanged(SeekBar seekBar, int progress, boolean b) {
                imageView.setImageBitmap(changeBitmapContrastBrightness(BitmapFactory.decodeResource(getResources(), R.drawable.lhota), (float) progress / 100f, 1));
                textView.setText("Contrast: "+(float) progress / 100f);
            }

            @Override
            public void onStartTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {}

            @Override
            public void onStopTrackingTouch(SeekBar seekBar) {}
        });

        seekbar.setMax(200);
        seekbar.setProgress(100);
    }

    public static Bitmap changeBitmapContrastBrightness(Bitmap bmp, float contrast, float brightness) {
        ColorMatrix cm = new ColorMatrix(new float[]
                {
                        contrast, 0, 0, 0, brightness,
                        0, contrast, 0, 0, brightness,
                        0, 0, contrast, 0, brightness,
                        0, 0, 0, 1, 0
                });

        Bitmap ret = Bitmap.createBitmap(bmp.getWidth(), bmp.getHeight(), bmp.getConfig());

        Canvas canvas = new Canvas(ret);

        Paint paint = new Paint();
        paint.setColorFilter(new ColorMatrixColorFilter(cm));
        canvas.drawBitmap(bmp, 0, 0, paint);

        return ret;
    }
}

activity_main.java:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:orientation="vertical">

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/image"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/label"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:padding="8dp"
        android:textAppearance="@android:style/TextAppearance.Holo.Medium" />

    <SeekBar
        android:id="@+id/seekbar"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content" />

</LinearLayout>

Here is complete method:

/**
 * 
 * @param bmp input bitmap
 * @param contrast 0..10 1 is default
 * @param brightness -255..255 0 is default
 * @return new bitmap
 */
public static Bitmap changeBitmapContrastBrightness(Bitmap bmp, float contrast, float brightness)
{
    ColorMatrix cm = new ColorMatrix(new float[]
            {
                contrast, 0, 0, 0, brightness,
                0, contrast, 0, 0, brightness,
                0, 0, contrast, 0, brightness,
                0, 0, 0, 1, 0
            });

    Bitmap ret = Bitmap.createBitmap(bmp.getWidth(), bmp.getHeight(), bmp.getConfig());

    Canvas canvas = new Canvas(ret);

    Paint paint = new Paint();
    paint.setColorFilter(new ColorMatrixColorFilter(cm));
    canvas.drawBitmap(bmp, 0, 0, paint);

    return ret;
}
