resize all images in gridview to fit the 3x5

Question

I have a GridView with 3 columns and 5 rows of images.

currently configureg like...

<GridView
    android:id="@+id/faces_gridview"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:numColumns="3" >
</GridView>

I want the images inside to resize themselves to fit 3x5 grid which is different in each phone. how can I tell the GridView to resize the images based on the grid size that I want ?

numColumns sets the columns but it does not reassure me that there will be 5 rows visible in the screen. I don't want to use a scroller.

for image view android:scaleType="fitXY". – Dheeresh Singh Jun 22 '12 at 05:47 — Dheeresh Singh, Jun 22 '12 at 05:47

as per GridView auto fit images & GridView not stretching to all screens

try

android:scaleType="fitXY" in image view 

and

 android:stretchMode="columnWidth" in grid view

the pictures are scaled and not cropped which is good but only 3 rows are visible instead of the all 5. I will try to fetch the screen height and try to max it with this data. – ufk Jun 22 '12 at 06:40

but as per this https://groups.google.com/group/android-beginners/browse_thread/thread/1ee2ddccd645bb71 weight can work for us – Dheeresh Singh Jun 22 '12 at 07:14

Why is fitXY better than centerCrop here? – IgorGanapolsky Jan 14 '14 at 21:06
