How do you setLayoutParams() for an ImageView?

Question

I want to set the LayoutParams for an ImageView but cant seem to find out the proper way to do it.

I can only find documentation in the API

Answer 1

You need to set the LayoutParams of the ViewGroup the ImageView is sitting in. For example if your ImageView is inside a LinearLayout, then you create a

LinearLayout.LayoutParams layoutParams = new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(30, 30);
yourImageView.setLayoutParams(layoutParams);

This is because it's the parent of the View that needs to know what size to allocate to the View.
