B4A Library ScaleImageView - Pan and zoom large images

Caps64 · May 21, 2020

It is true, AND the picture moves in the screen: then now I realize what is the CenterX value, and that this property cannot be used to do what I need in my project, because I dont want that the picture moves in the screen when I swipe on it (I have to use PAN_LIMIT_INSIDE*).
In order to implement a swipe detector, SIV would need at least a Touch event. I tried to link a GestureDetector to the SIV, but it seems that GD eats all events, then as side effect the built in pinch to zoom feature does not work.

* It seems that the default value for PanLimit is PAN_LIMIT_INSIDE (not PAN_LIMIT_CENTER).

Only if it is added by code.

this is a wonderful Library. but it works just with large image. could this code be modified to support samall and medium image like less than 200 ko for remote BLOB database use ?

thank you

No it doesn't, what makes you think that? It can work with any size image. In particular small images which you have already decoded and have a Bitmap for can be assigned to the Image property and panned and zoomed. Look at the popup help for ScaleImageView.Image.

Note that small images may need a large value of MaxZoom set. The default of 2 is probably a bit low for smaller images.

It is a wonderfull library and it is perfect for a gallery app, with a very effective zoom.

My main reason to restart using B4A was to implement on a mobile device my mapping program which covers the entire UK at various scales and requires the ability to display large map images at a specified zoom level and centered on a specified coordinate and then allow the user to drag and zoom the map.

For some strange reason if you set targetSdkVersion="xx" to more than 13 in the manifest it dramatically reduces the largest Bitmap that can be created from a file so most of my map images then no longer open in TouchImageView, jsTouchImageView and even ImageView. These all rely on opening a full resolution bitmap to display an image. It seems to be a Canvas size limitation. Also I failed to get TouchImageView to reliably pre-zoom and pre-position an image so I struggled on with jsTouchImageView and targetSdkVersion="13" and got an acceptable working version but pre-zooming and pre-positioning at an exact point was a bit problematic and not entirely accurate but usually close enough after a few heuristics. It also still used very large amounts of memory for the decoded bitmap.

Having got the app working I then started looking to try to finally solve the image viewing problems and found some source code on GitHub that was written for just this purpose. Instead of loading the entire image at once it only fully decodes from the image file the areas needed for display. As a bonus the pre-zooming and centering is very accurate and works a treat. So after a bit of difficulty getting it to compile I wrapped it, slightly enhanced to draw a centered point indication and am now extremely happy with my mapping program that can now display huge images and target SDK version 26 and later without using a vast amount of memory.

There is a ScaleImageView.htm file in the attached archive that documents the extremely simple API posted below. As always do what readme.txt says.

I can't put a large image file in the archive as it becomes too big to upload here, so find your own large image and do as Readme.txt says.

ScaleImageView
This is a custom image view designed for displaying huge images.
It includes all the standard gestures for zooming and panning images
and provides some extra useful features for animating the image position and scale.
The aim of this library is to solve some of the common problems when displaying large images in Android.
This view extends View and so inherits all the normal View methods.
This view doesn't extend ImageView and isn't intended as a general purpose replacement for it.
It is specialised for the display of photos and other large images, not the display of 9-patches,
shapes and the other types of drawable that ImageView supports.
Supported gestures are:
One finger drag to pan, Two finger pinch to zoom and double tap to zoom in and out.
Pan while zooming, seamless switch between pan and zoom and fling momentum after panning.
Quick scale (one finger zoom - quick double tap then drag)
Events Click and LongClick are provided whose co-ordinates may be accessed in the event code.
ClickViewX, ClickViewY return the position of the Click or LongClick on the view.
ClickImageX and ClickImageY return the position of the Click or LongClick on the source image.
The OnDraw event provides a Canvas that can be used to draw on the view whenever it is redrawn.
The view can draw a circle at a defined position on the original image.
The circle can either have a fixed size that is a fraction of the screen width
or a variable size that always covers the same area of the original size as it is zoomed.
The associated file, ScaleImage.jar, must be located in the Additional Libraries folder.
The line '#AdditionalJar: ScaleImage' must be added to the Main module.

This prevents the circle being drawn vanishingly small when zoomed out if EnableCircleScale is True.
The default is 0.02.

CircleRadius As Float
Gets or sets the radius of the circle as a factor between 0 and 1 of the width of the view or of the full image.
If EnableCircleScale is True the factor is that of the full size image width.
If EnableCircleScale is False the factor is that of the width of the view.
The default is 0.002 which is appropriate if EnableCircleScale is True.

Gets or sets whether a circle will be drawn at the image coordinates specified by CircleX and CircleY.
The default is False.

EnableCircleScale As Boolean
Gets or sets whether the size of the circle will increase and decrease when the image is zoomed.
If True the circle will resize to bound the same features on the image whatever the zoom.
If False the circle will maintain a fixed size on the screen of the device.
The default is True.

Enabled As Boolean

Height As Int

Image As android.graphics.Bitmap [write only]
Load an existing Bitmap into the view.

This is an easy way to add pan and zoom functionality to an image already in memory.

ImageFile As String [write only]
Load an image from a file saved on the device file system into the view.
This method can display JPG and PNG images of any size.
In order to support huge images without running out of memory, a sub-sampled base layer is first loaded.

please is there a way to do transparent polygon (10% ....90%)?

I can create only entire transparent (False) or non transparent (True) polygon with:

B4X:

viewcanvas.DrawPath(Path_bod, Colors.Magenta,True, 2)

Please "Andrew".
I got a little problem.

CenterX, CenterY is Float
but
SetScaleAndCenterPixels(x and y is Int)

When I read the point position with CenterX, CenterY (as float) and after I would like to find the same position with SetScaleAndCenterPixels (x,y as Int), the result is not accurate.

Please can you change SetScaleAndCenterPixels(x and y as Float) in the source code ?

There is no point in doing this as pixel values are inherently integer values. What inaccuracy you experiencing? Have you missed
SetScaleAndCenter (scale As Float, x As Float, y As Float, duration As Int)
In general the float values are factors of the image width and height and range from 0 to 1. The pixel values are absolute pixel values. You can transform between the two by mutiplying a float factor value by the image width or height pixel size, or by dividing a pixel value by the image width or height pixel size.

Please look at the attached project.

When you pan map (pic1) - coordinates of center point are calculated in "OnDraw" : ('x y suradnice stredoveho bodu) and displayed in the labels: lbl_yobr, lbl_xobr

When you use Find button (pic2) and you find the same coordinates(wgs) like displayed, there are very innacurate coordinates in the labels: lbl_yobr, lbl_xobr

But try to do disable this line in Sub Button9_Click :

B4X:

'ScaleImageView1.SetScaleAndCenterPixels(ScaleImageView1.Scale,kde_lon_pix, kde_lat_pix, 1)

and coordinates in the labels: lbl_yobr, lbl_xobr are OK.

I suspect you may have an integer rounding problem as your map is not sufficiently detailed.

I can use the map with 70 zoom.
But why is all OK when I do disable this line in Sub Button9_Click ? :

Try a map with more pixels. You move the map, suffer the rounding because there aren't enough pixels and the error is reflected in your textbox co-ordinates which are updated when the map is redrawn.

Version 2.30 now has a readable Image property to get the image presently displayed by ScaleImageView. Add this somewhere in the existing demo in the v2.20 archive

    Dim b As Bitmap
    b.Initialize3(ScaleImageView1.Image)
    Dim Out As OutputStream
    Out = File.OpenOutput( File.DirRootExternal & "/Download/", "Testxv.jpg", False)
    b.WriteToStream(Out, 90, "JPEG")
    Out.Close

Hello.

I have managed to put these ScaleImageView in the Dominex's SlidingPanels, which are a class. Specifically in its ModeFullScreen format.
Is there a way to capture the Touch event and distinguish it from the SlidingPanels Touch event?
And put some indicator or event as the image of the ScaleImageView is zoomed in?
Would you Agraham want add it to the library?
Would it be feasible?

Regards and thanks.

I don't understand what you want to do but the actual view underlying ScaleImageView captures all touch events apart from Click and LongClick so those are all that is available to play with.

I want to do as WhatsApp does in its activity to send several images.
Each ScaleImageView contains each image, and the SlidingPanels class changes the display from one image to another.
I want the image to be zoomed in to not be able to change the image. And when it is not, with the horizontal gesture you slide the container panel and its corresponding ScaleImageView.
But that gesture doesn't surface now.

Thanks
