How to programmatically re-apply a 9-patch image to an ImageView?

Question

I have an activity that has an ImageView defined inside a HorizontalScrollView. The image source is a 9-patch file that is constrained to stretch only the right edge to fill

Answer 1

Also another solution is to set image programmatically as ImageResource and set scaleType

imageView.setImageResource(R.drawable.favorite_driver_icon);
imageView.setScaleType(ScaleType.FIT_XY);
