Question

I don’t know how to get an image to fill the screen, have tried everything, maybe there is some particular layout I should be using..?

I’m using an ImageView, however this just fills about 70% of the screen, leaving blank space at the bottom…

At the moment i’m just using a LinearLayout and setting its background to my image. While this fills the screen, the image is slightly streched, which I don’t want.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! 🙂

The code inside the ImageView tags of my layout file are:

android:layout_width="fill_parent" 
android:layout_height="wrap_content" 
android:scaleType="centerCrop" 
android:adjustViewBounds="true" 
android:src="@drawable/image" 

Answer 1

//in your xml Image attribute as

android:scaleType="fitXY"

or
//using thru programatically

imgview.setScaleType(ScaleType.FIT_XY);

Note: this applies to when the image is set with android:src=”…” rather than android:background=”…” as backgrounds are set by default to stretch and fit to the View.
