Make square image in Glide and then round it

Question

I solve a typical task for image: try to centerCrop() it and make circular like in How to round an image with Glide library?, but a result seems like Glide circular image gets cropped or

(not circular).

I think Glide (v.4) doesn't correctly crop the image. I tried many variants like GlideApp.with(photo).load(url).circleCrop().into(photo). Probably better would be first to create a square from a rectangle and then make it circular.

This is a part of XML:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    >

    <ImageView
        android:id="@+id/photo"
        android:layout_width="50dp"
        android:layout_height="50dp"
        android:layout_marginStart="15dp"
        android:layout_marginLeft="15dp"
        android:layout_marginTop="20dp"
        android:adjustViewBounds="true"
        android:scaleType="fitCenter"
        app:layout_constraintStart_toStartOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="parent"
        tools:src="@drawable/image_1"
        />

    <TextView
        android:id="@+id/name"
        android:layout_width="0dp"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_alignParentTop="true"
        android:layout_alignParentBottom="true"
        android:layout_marginStart="7dp"
        android:layout_marginLeft="7dp"
        android:lineSpacingExtra="1sp"
        android:textColor="@color/black"
        android:textSize="20sp"
        app:layout_constraintEnd_toStartOf="parent"
        app:layout_constraintHorizontal_weight="1"
        app:layout_constraintStart_toEndOf="@+id/photo"
        app:layout_constraintTop_toTopOf="@+id/photo"
        tools:text="Name"
        />

</android.support.constraint.ConstraintLayout>

UPDATE

Sorry, a problem was in a source image. I didn't think it was squared with white paddings above and below (lines are added):

And another example:

This is because on a backend they downscaled rectangular image making it square with white borders.

Better to use [`CircleImageView`](https://github.com/hdodenhof/CircleImageView). It's easy and effective. — Rumit Patel, Nov 14 '18 at 13:12
@RumitPatel, yes, but if I have Glide, probably it can handle cropping. — CoolMind, Nov 14 '18 at 13:38
yes @CoolMind , you wrote you have tried and *Glide (v.4) doesn't correctly crop the image.* so I suggested alternate and better way. I had same issue and I preferred to use [`CircleImageView.`](https://github.com/hdodenhof/CircleImageView) :-) — Rumit Patel, Nov 14 '18 at 13:47
@RumitPatel, thanks. Strange that you have a namesake here. :) — CoolMind, Nov 14 '18 at 13:54
Any way to tell Glide to crop a specific rectangle of the bitmap? — android developer, Aug 03 '22 at 22:46

Use RequestOptions.circleCropTransform()

Like this :

    Glide.with(this).load(url)
            .apply(RequestOptions.circleCropTransform())
            .into((ImageView) photo);

Plus, make sure the ImageView is a square. If you are using ConstraintLayout, use app:layout_constraintDimensionRatio="1:1"

Yes, I have a square `ImageView` (50x50). Sorry, but a result is the same. – CoolMind Nov 14 '18 at 13:43
@CoolMind then post the xml layout please – Hocine B Nov 14 '18 at 14:47
Ok, I added it. – CoolMind Nov 14 '18 at 14:52

Thanks for this tip `app:layout_constraintDimensionRatio="1:1"`. – Lalit Fauzdar May 09 '20 at 17:24

you can try this way xml after taking the picture

   <de.hdodenhof.circleimageview.CircleImageView
   xmlns:app="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
   />

    dependencies {
    ...
    implementation 'de.hdodenhof:circleimageview:2.2.0'}

Please check below answer :

Try it and let me know if any question regarding it.

private RequestOptions circleOptions = new RequestOptions()
            .centerCrop()
            .circleCrop()      // responsible for circle crop
            .placeholder(R.color.color_gray)    // replace with your placeholder image or remove if don't want to set
            .error(R.color.color_gray)     // replace with your placeholder image or remove if don't want to set
            .diskCacheStrategy(DiskCacheStrategy.RESOURCE);

public void loadImageCircle(String url, ImageView view) {
        Glide.with(context)
                .load(url)
                .apply(circleOptions)
                .into(view);
    }

Call method as :

loadImageCircle(imafgeURL,imageView);

A problem was in the image. I tried to make a circle from a square that contained white paddings on both sides.

Then I used an original rectangular image without paddings.

GlideApp.with(imageView)
    .load(url)
    .transform(CircleCrop())
    .into(imageView)

Looking at Glide Multiple transformations in Android, I found that we can first create a square by cropping the rectangle and then make rounded corners.

val transformation = MultiTransformation(CenterCrop(), RoundedCorners(10))
GlideApp.with(imageView)
    .load(url)
    .transform(transformation)
    .into(imageView)

Make square image in Glide and then round it
