auto resize image on label to fit into screen size

[hera...@gmail.com]

hello, i create label and adding icon (large size image) into it. i want to use this label as a logo. but the image size is larger then the screen size. how to auto re-size the image and fit it into the screen? in android we can scale an image using dynamic pixel, how i do that in codename one?

thank you

        Image i = ;//This is your image

        Image scaled;
        
        Display display = Display.getInstance();
        if (display.getDisplayWidth() > display.getDisplayHeight()) {
            scaled = i
                    .scaledWidth(display.getDisplayHeight());
        } else {
            scaled = i.scaledWidth(display.getDisplayWidth());
        }

        label.setIcon(scaled);

I suggest you use:

form.getStyle().setBgImage(...);
form.getStyle().setBackgroundType(Style.BACKGROUND_IMAGE_SCALED);

The reasoning is that this method uses the drawImage method that accepts width/height where appropriate and is thus MUCH faster and more memory efficient than Image.scaled().

Hi i was trying to load grid of images from the file system 

        try {

            //Adds the file path of the file system . . .

            final Image icon = Image.createImage(currentFileData.getFilePath());

            if (icon != null) {

                fileName.setPreferredSize(dime);

                fileName.getStyle().setBgImage(icon);

                fileName.getStyle().setBackgroundType(Style.BACKGROUND_IMAGE_SCALED);

                fileName.repaint();

                //fileName.setIcon(icon);

            }

            //fileSize.setText(FileUtill.fileSizeInMBs(currentFileData.getFilePath()));

        } catch (IOException ex) {

            Log.p("Error loading image . . ");

        }

But it not showing any this and added repaint it still not showing . . .

I need some help ?

Hi,
please open a new thread next time instead of reviving an old thread. Use setText(" ") since I'm assuming you are using a label and the labels are hidden by default.
