In this case, android:cropToPadding defines whether the image will be clipped by only the view's bounds or also clipped by the view's padding. This picture shows the same 72x72 image inside a 72x72 view with 16dp padding and CENTER scale type.
Padding is the space inside the border, between the border and the actual view's content. Note that padding goes completely around the content: there is padding on the top, bottom, right and left sides (which can be independent).
Padding can be used to offset the content of the view by a specific number of pixels. For instance, a left padding of 2 will push the view's content by 2 pixels to the right of the left edge.
An ImageView control is used to display images in Android applications. An image can be displayed by assigning it to the ImageView control and including the android:src attribute in the XML definition of the control. Images can also be dynamically assigned to the ImageView control through Java code.
finally!
<ImageView
(...)
android:adjustViewBounds="true" />
the adjustViewbounds attribute did the trick:
Set this to true if you want the ImageView to adjust its bounds to preserve the aspect ratio of its drawable.
i stumbled upon it here. thanks for your help!
android:scaleType="fitXY"
It works for me.
those extra padding is autogenerated since the android would try to get the original aspect ratio. please try below
android:scaleType="fitCenter"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:layout_height="wrap_content"
It has to do with the image aspect ratio. By default, the system keeps the original aspect ratio of the image source. Which in most cases does not exactly match the layout or dimensions specified in the layout. Therefore,
android:scaleType to fit the image. For example, you can specify android:scaleType="fitXY"
