How to get the width and height of an android.widget.ImageView?

Question

My answer on this question might help you:

int finalHeight, finalWidth;
final ImageView iv = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.scaled_image);
final TextView tv = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.size_label);
ViewTreeObserver vto = iv.getViewTreeObserver();
vto.addOnPreDrawListener(new ViewTreeObserver.OnPreDrawListener() {
    public boolean onPreDraw() {
        iv.getViewTreeObserver().removeOnPreDrawListener(this);
        finalHeight = iv.getMeasuredHeight();
        finalWidth = iv.getMeasuredWidth();
        tv.setText("Height: " + finalHeight + " Width: " + finalWidth);
        return true;
    }
});

You can then add your image scaling work from within the onPreDraw() method.

I could get image width and height by its drawable;

int width = imgView.getDrawable().getIntrinsicWidth();
int height = imgView.getDrawable().getIntrinsicHeight();

I just set this property and now Android OS is taking care of every thing.

android:adjustViewBounds="true"

Use this in your layout.xml where you have planted your ImageView :D

Post to the UI thread works for me.

final ImageView iv = (ImageView)findViewById(R.id.scaled_image);

iv.post(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                int width = iv.getMeasuredWidth();
                int height = iv.getMeasuredHeight();

            }
});

The reason the ImageView's dimentions are 0 is because when you are querying them, the view still haven't performed the layout and measure steps. You only told the view how it would "behave" in the layout, but it still didn't calculated where to put each view.

How do you decide the size to give to the image view? Can't you simply use one of the scaling options natively implemented?
