How do I remove extra space above and below imageView?

I have a really simple image within a RelativeLayout and for some reason I am getting extra spacing on the top and bottom which I can't remove. How can I clear it out?

Here is what it looks like:

Here is the code:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<RelativeLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="match_parent" >
    <ImageView
            android:id="@+id/imageView1"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
            android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
            android:src="@drawable/slice11pp" />
</RelativeLayout>

Try this

android:adjustViewBounds="true"

In your above imageView just add android:scaleType="fitXY"

Your problem is probably that you have no scale type set... Add it to the XML for the ImageView, "fitCenter" should be correct, but there are others, check: [ScaleType](http://developer.android.com/reference/android/widget/ImageView.ScaleType.html "the XML syntax is there as well").

<ImageView
            android:id="@+id/imageView1"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
            android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
            android:src="@drawable/slice11pp"
            android:scaleType="fitCenter" />

Must be enough adding the property:

android:adjustViewBounds="true"

for example:

http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android" android:layout_width="match_parent" android:layout_height="match_parent" >

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/imageView1"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentLeft="true"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:src="@drawable/slice11pp"
        android:adjustViewBounds="true" />

If your image view height is match_parent, even if you set android:adjustViewBounds="true" ImageView will add some extra blank space at top and bottom side. so, change ImageView height to wrap_content and set android:adjustViewBounds="true"

for example

<ImageView
  android:id="@+id/img_view"
  android:layout_width="match_parent"
  android:layout_height="wrap_content"
  android:adjustViewBounds="true"/>

Use drawable-nodpi folder if there is no specific requirement for images. Then android: adjustViewBounds = "true" acts as the default.

If you use drawable-nodpi you don't need to set android:adjustViewBounds = "true".

I think this is the most effortless method.

android:scaleType="centerCrop" by adding this

<ImageView
    android:id="@+id/image"
    android:layout_width="200dp"
    android:layout_height="200dp"
    android:src="@drawable/temp_image"
    android:adjustViewBounds="true"
    android:scaleType="centerCrop"/>

works for me Before and After Image

just add ScaleType="fitxy" inside the Image view

Try this

<ImageView
     (...)
     android:adjustViewBounds="true" />

this is the perfect solution

 <ImageView
android:id="@+id/imageView"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:adjustViewBounds="true"
android:scaleType="fitXY"
/>

it will not leave any extra single dp in any side. however the image will be distorted if it is not portrait image.

this line of code will solve the problem

android:adjustViewBounds="true"

don't forget to rotate the image
