In Swift programming , how do you crop an image and put it on the center afterwards?
This is what I\'ve got so far ... I\'ve successfully crop the image but I want t
You can try this answer. It is written in swift 3.
extension UIImage {
func crop(to:CGSize) -> UIImage {
guard let cgimage = self.cgImage else { return self }
let contextImage: UIImage = UIImage(cgImage: cgimage)
let contextSize: CGSize = contextImage.size
//Set to square
var posX: CGFloat = 0.0
var posY: CGFloat = 0.0
let cropAspect: CGFloat = to.width / to.height
var cropWidth: CGFloat = to.width
var cropHeight: CGFloat = to.height
if to.width > to.height { //Landscape
cropWidth = contextSize.width
cropHeight = contextSize.width / cropAspect
posY = (contextSize.height - cropHeight) / 2
} else if to.width < to.height { //Portrait
cropHeight = contextSize.height
cropWidth = contextSize.height * cropAspect
posX = (contextSize.width - cropWidth) / 2
} else { //Square
if contextSize.width >= contextSize.height { //Square on landscape (or square)
cropHeight = contextSize.height
cropWidth = contextSize.height * cropAspect
posX = (contextSize.width - cropWidth) / 2
}else{ //Square on portrait
cropWidth = contextSize.width
cropHeight = contextSize.width / cropAspect
posY = (contextSize.height - cropHeight) / 2
}
}
let rect: CGRect = CGRect(x : posX, y : posY, width : cropWidth, height : cropHeight)
// Create bitmap image from context using the rect
let imageRef: CGImage = contextImage.cgImage!.cropping(to: rect)!
// Create a new image based on the imageRef and rotate back to the original orientation
let cropped: UIImage = UIImage(cgImage: imageRef, scale: self.scale, orientation: self.imageOrientation)
cropped.draw(in: CGRect(x : 0, y : 0, width : to.width, height : to.height))
return cropped
}
}
