Android: Set minimum height of a view programmatically

Question

I'm trying to set minimum height for an imageview programmatically but had no luck so far. My code is below

    int width = (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 160, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());
    int minHeight = (int) TypedValue.applyDimension(TypedValue.COMPLEX_UNIT_DIP, 100, getResources().getDisplayMetrics());

    LayoutParams params = new LayoutParams(width,LayoutParams.MATCH_PARENT);

    SmartImageView siv = new SmartImageView(getActivity());
    siv.setMinimumHeight(minHeight);
    siv.setLayoutParams(sivParams);
    siv.setAdjustViewBounds(true);
    siv.setScaleType(ScaleType.FIT_XY);
    siv.setImageUrl(url);
    ll.addView(siv);

I also tried to put the setMinimumWidth method after the setLayoutParams method but that didn't worked either. Please help

Thanks

Answer 1

The answer by @Ashok Damani is incorrect as pointed out by @Gustavo Baiocchi Costa in the comments:

this sets the height or width not the minimum width or height

The correct method to set the minimum height of a view in Android:

Property access way(in Kotlin):

yourView.minimumHeight = minHeight

Setter method way:

yourView.setMinimumHeight(minHeight);

Android Documentation says:

Sets the minimum height of the view. It is not guaranteed the view will be able to achieve this minimum height (for example, if its parent layout constrains it with less available height).

Answer 2

try this--->

siv.getLayoutParams().height = minHeight;

or u can also try--->

LinearLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(width , minHeight);
siv.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);
