Fixed aspect ratio View

Question

How would I go implementing a fixed aspect ratio View? I\'d like to have items with 1:1 aspect ratio in a GridView. I think it\'s better to subclas

Answer 1

Simply override onSizeChanged and calculate ratio there.

Formula for aspect ratio is:

newHeight =  original_height / original_width x new_width

this would give you something like that:

 @Override
protected void onSizeChanged(int w, int h, int oldw, int oldh) {
    super.onSizeChanged(w, h, oldw, oldh);

    //3:5 ratio
    float RATIO = 5/3;
    setLayoutParams(new LayoutParams((int)RATIO * w, w));

}

hope this helps!
