Rich image scroll and zooming on android

Question

I\'m looking for a way to implement image zoom and scrolling the way it is implemented in Droid Comic Viewer. Is there any quick way to do that? If not, then could you pleas

Answer 1

It wasn't quick for us. When we implemented that part of Droid Comic Viewer we used the source code of ScrollView as reference to create a view able to handle horizontal and vertical scrolling.

Scrolling and zooming have a lot of quirks that we gradually solved, and some of them that we still have to solve.

If you're not in a hurry, we plan to release the source code later this year.

Answer 2

There are many ways to implement zoom. As easy way is to set an image matrix on the ImageView:

Matrix matrix = new Matrix();
matrix.postScale(scaleX, scaleX);
matrix.postTranslate(offsetX, offsetY);
mImageView.setImageMatrix(matrix);

If you're not familiar with touch event processing, look into OnTouchListener. Using a GestureDetector can help simplify things further.
