Question

I have a app that will populate a UITableView after the user takes a picture.

The UITableViewCell’s image is that picture that the user takes. I would prefer these images to be square.

I have tried just about everything, here’s some code:

UIImage *theImage = [UIImage imageNamed:theImagePath];
cell.imageView.contentMode = UIViewContentModeScaleAspectFill;
cell.imageView.image = theImage;

Thanks!

Answer 1

one option would be to pass in a square image:

UIGraphicsBeginImageContext(CGSizeMake(60.0f, 60.0f));
[fullSizeImage drawInRect:CGRectMake(0,0,60.0f, 60.0f)];

UIImage* newImage = UIGraphicsGetImageFromCurrentImageContext();
UIGraphicsEndImageContext(); 

you would probably want to only do this once for each image, and then cache the result.
